<ul>
<li><strong>Store</strong> alignments and variant calls for one genome or a million.</li>
<li><strong>Process</strong> genomic data in batch by running principal component analysis or Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, in minutes or hours, by using parallel computing frameworks like MapReduce.</li>
<li><strong>Explore</strong> data by slicing alignments and variants by genomic range across one or multiple samples -- for your own algorithms or for visualization; or interactively process entire cohorts to find transition/transversion ratios, allelic frequency, genome-wide association and more using BigQuery.</li>
<li><strong>Share</strong> genomic data with your research group, collaborators, the broader community, or the public. You decide.</li>

	<title><![CDATA[Explore taxdump files !]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<pre>This is an extract of taxdump-readme.txt to be found at 
ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/taxonomy/

The content of the archive
--------------------------

It may look like this:

delnodes.dmp
division.dmp
gencode.dmp
merged.dmp
names.dmp
nodes.dmp
readme.txt

The readme.txt file gives a brief description of *.dmp files. These files
contain taxonomic information and are briefly described below. Each of the
files store one record in the single line that are delimited by "\t|\n"
(tab, vertical bar, and newline) characters. Each record consists of one 
or more fields delimited by "\t|\t" (tab, vertical bar, and tab) characters.
The brief description of field position and meaning for each file follows.

nodes.dmp
---------

This file represents taxonomy nodes. The description for each node includes 
the following fields:

	tax_id					-- node id in GenBank taxonomy database
 	parent tax_id				-- parent node id in GenBank taxonomy database
 	rank					-- rank of this node (superkingdom, kingdom, ...) 
 	embl code				-- locus-name prefix; not unique
 	division id				-- see division.dmp file
 	inherited div flag  (1 or 0)		-- 1 if node inherits division from parent
 	genetic code id				-- see gencode.dmp file
 	inherited GC  flag  (1 or 0)		-- 1 if node inherits genetic code from parent
 	mitochondrial genetic code id		-- see gencode.dmp file
 	inherited MGC flag  (1 or 0)		-- 1 if node inherits mitochondrial gencode from parent
 	GenBank hidden flag (1 or 0)            -- 1 if name is suppressed in GenBank entry lineage
 	hidden subtree root flag (1 or 0)       -- 1 if this subtree has no sequence data yet
 	comments				-- free-text comments and citations

names.dmp
---------
Taxonomy names file has these fields:

	tax_id					-- the id of node associated with this name
	name_txt				-- name itself
	unique name				-- the unique variant of this name if name not unique
	name class				-- (synonym, common name, ...)

division.dmp
------------
Divisions file has these fields:
	division id				-- taxonomy database division id
	division cde				-- GenBank division code (three characters)
	division name				-- e.g. BCT, PLN, VRT, MAM, PRI...
	comments

gencode.dmp
-----------
Genetic codes file:

	genetic code id				-- GenBank genetic code id
	abbreviation				-- genetic code name abbreviation
	name					-- genetic code name
	cde					-- translation table for this genetic code
	starts					-- start codons for this genetic code

delnodes.dmp
------------
Deleted nodes (nodes that existed but were deleted) file field:

	tax_id					-- deleted node id

merged.dmp
----------
Merged nodes file fields:

	old_tax_id                              -- id of nodes which has been merged
	new_tax_id                              -- id of nodes which is result of merging

	<title><![CDATA[PubMed opens for comment]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The informal conversations that researchers have at scientific meetings look set to move online, if a new initiative by the US National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) has its way. On 22 October, the NCBI of Bethesda, Maryland, launched the pilot phase of a programme called PubMed Commons. This will allow users to comment on published abstracts on the PubMed website, which indexes some 22 million papers.<br /><br />For now, only a select group of researchers and their invited guests can use the system. But the NCBI's director David Lipman, who helped to develop the programme, says that soon any PubMed author will be allowed to comment under his or her real name and anyone will be able to read the comments.</p><p>More @ <a href="http://www.nature.com/news/pubmed-opens-for-comment-1.14023">http://www.nature.com/news/pubmed-opens-for-comment-1.14023</a></p><p>News source Nature.</p>]]></description>
