The goal: real-time biodiversity assessments that are locally grounded but globally scalable, helping guide conservation and policy worldwide.

Aquests dies s’ha celebrat el II Congrés de la Iniciativa Catalana per a l’#EarthBioGenomeProject 🌍

La investigadora CSIC al CRAG, Laura Botigué, ha participat a la presentació de projectes individuals amb la ponència “Pushing forward the limits of plant genome assembly”. 🧬

🧬🌱Researcher from #IRNASA-CSIC @tank-silvia.bsky.social presented the results of her project on optimizing HMW DNA from wild plant species at the @catbiogenoma.bsky.social meeting, part of the #EarthBioGenomeProject. 👏👏👏

sequencing all species I reported about the Earth BioGenome Project, which aims to obtain genome sequences for all eukaryotic species known to science, when it launched back in 2018. Since then, continuing progress in technology has enabled the project to keep on its somewhat ambitious course, so it now is approaching the finish of phase I (out of three) and beginning to make detailed plans for phase II. Which means it's a good time for a new feature about the project. The focus of attention this time lies on the fact that much of the biodiversity yet to be sequenced resides in the countries of the Global South, so the project needs to build capacity where the species are found. My feature is out now: **All eukaryotes great and small** Current Biology Volume 35, Issue 20, 20 October 2025, Pages R937-R939 Restricted access to full text and PDF download (will become open access one year after publication) Magic link for free access (first seven weeks only) See also my new Mastodon thread where I will highlight all this year's CB features. My mastodon posts are also mirrored on Bluesky (starting 22.2.2025), but for this purpose I have to post them again, outside of the thread. (I think threads only transfer if the first post was transferred, so once I start a new thread it should work.) Last year's thread is here . The African BioGenome Project aims to contribute genome sequences for more than 100,000 species. (Photo: Antonius Smal/Unsplash.)

this week's feature in #CurrentBiology is about the second phase of the #EarthBiogenomeProject and how it needs to build capacity in the #GlobalSouth where most of the #biodiversity is. proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2025/10/sequencing-all-s... #science #ecology #conservation #genome

Dins la nit de la recerca, la Dr. #MartaRiutort de #IRBioUB i @geneticsub.bsky.social va presentar la xerrada sobre #EarthBiogenomeProject

Global Effort to Sequence Life's DNA Accelerates to Preserve Biodiversity

The Earth BioGenome Project catalogued 3,465 species 2024 and will sequence 150,000 more in Phase II. The $0.5 billion impact fund will aid Global South training. Read more: getnews.me/global-effort-to-sequenc... #earthbiogenomeproject #genomics

🌍 DNA deserves to be shared—not stalled. It's time to rethink global rules on genetic data.

Fabio Zanarello has a goal in his session: explain how #LongReads sequencing is integrated in the non-model genome annotation workflow.

Once thought a fantasy, effort to sequence DNA of millions of species gains momentum Project has read 3000 genomes but needs billions to finish grand vision of sequencing all complex life

Latest update on the Earth BioGenome Project. The EBP is slightly behind schedule, but still moving forward. GIGA members can contribute their high quality reference genomes through our BioProject - PRJNA649812. www.science.org/content/arti...; #earthbiogenomeproject

We'd like to welcome Simone Gable to the EBP Secretariat team🥳
