Genome 10k #G10K meeting - Erich Jarvis' suggestions for the future of G10K

Six suggestions for the future of G10K -- Erich Jarvis

  1. Make a more focused mission than just 10k species

  2. Sequence on species per genus, ~9.5k species

  3. Generate a vertebrate genera phylogenome tree

  4. Reclassify species based on genomic distances and speciation timing.

  5. Answer question of what makes each vertebrate lineage distinct.

  6. Answer 6-10 targeted questions on identifying genes for specific complex traits - basic and clinical relevance.

Requirements to work together well / Erich Jarvis

  • Consistently assembled genomes, minimal quality assembly

  • Consistent genome annotation across all species

  • Weekly online meetings

  • Centralized hub for genome data access

  • A fair and clear publication policy and use of data

  • Money
