Build WS283

Build WS283 has started in Hinxton

New and interesting things: Several model changes, eg to variants

Additional C. briggsae operons

Large batch of new strains and variants from KO consortium, CGC and NBRP

AOB

WormBase's All Species page (https://wormbase.org/species/all#0123--10-02) updated with new genomes from WB ParaSite release 16

Todd and Magz set the 4 release dates for 2022.

Many thanks for being patient with the EBI FTP migration, which was very unfortunately timed.

Minutes

Help Desk

Web of Science Data Citation Index

FTP issues; migration to HTTPS download site

  • Paul D added link from "Downloads" to User Guide with relevant links
  • When WS282 is released, the live link will be added (today or tomorrow)

Changing lab representative

  • Who curates this? Cecilia curates lab information, but not sure if she curates this
  • Tim S sends monthly updates; may be a data update lag
  • Paul D will check on update to data

Community Forum issues

  • User unable to make some comments; Todd will look into it and get back to user
  • Unable to post links

ePCR, GMap, and Tree Display issues

  • Adam looked into Tree Display issue; may be able to provide similar info from Datomic
  • Adam would prefer we deprecate/retire Tree Display and remove one more dependency on ACEDB
  • Todd: these are periodic, recurring issues about depending on ACEDB
    • Could possibly setup multiple redundancies providing ACEDB, but may not be worth it
  • How important are these tools to WB and users?
  • Curators really like the Tree Display
    • Are there current alternatives to Tree Display?
    • Adam can demo using REST endpoint for Datomic
    • Thomas Down had created a Datomic tree viewer; not sure what the state of that tool is
    • Maybe we can provide link to REST endpoint from Adam under the WB Tools menu
  • We can add to Tree Display a REST endpoint link for that specific object in case Tree Display falls over

Genetics Manuscript

  • Just about ready, Paul D finishing up for submission

WS283 build

  • Hinxton received Caltech data and working on build
  • Variation/Allele model changes
  • New C. briggsae operons set
  • Large batch of new strains from KO consortium, CGC, and NBP
  • Can write up as a blog post
