D6.5 Improvement and Application of Eukaryotic Gene

Summary
We will release the first set of the reference eukaryotic gene catalog including 292 species of the MMETSP project and 78 species of Roscoff Culture Collection. Thereafter, we will investigate the production of combined assemblies (assemblies built from a unique taxa, but under a range of RNAseq conditions) from MMETSP dataset. We plan to produce 119 new eukaryotic assemblies. Additionally, works we will identify (probable) contamination and/or mixed species populations within eukaryotic assemblies, based on functional annotation (produced by EBI pipeline) and contigs binning.
