New Genomes
-----------

This release includes the genome of the "eye worm" Loa loa, causative agent of Loa loa 
filariasis. Genome assembly and annotation were performed by the Filarial worms Sequencing 
Project of the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT (http://www.broadinstitute.org/). 


New Data
--------

We have incorporated nearly 44,000 SNPs identified in a study by Andersen et al. 
This study characterized C. elegans genetic variation using high-throughput selective 
sequencing of a worldwide collection of 200 wild strains.

"Chromosome-scale selective sweeps shape Caenorhabditis elegans genomic diversity."


Genome sequence updates:
-----------------------

Many changes have been made to the reference genome sequence of C. elegans, using
data from three studies (see references below). This resulted in 558 Insertions, 
230 Deletions, and 614 Substitutions. There were 87 improvements to gene structures 
that were enabled by the sequence corrections; most of these were changes to correct 
a poor structure near a frameshift.This work is fully described in the following article 
on the WormBase BLOG:

Quick installation guide for UNIX/Linux systems
-----------------------------------------------

1. Create a new directory to contain your copy of WormBase,
	e.g. /users/yourname/wormbase

2. Unpack and untar all of the database.*.tar.gz files into
	this directory. You will need approximately 2-3 Gb of disk space.

3. Obtain and install a suitable acedb binary for your system
	(available from www.acedb.org).

4. Use the acedb 'xace' program to open your database, e.g.
	type 'xace /users/yourname/wormbase' at the command prompt.

5. See the acedb website for more information about acedb and
	using xace.
