GBI vs. GBIG: Summative Comparison of Genome Assemblies

Felicia F. Wang's dataset provides summative detail comparing an original genome assembly (GBI) to an updated version (GBIG). The dataset is a 5.5 KB Excel file, last updated on April 29, 2026, and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.

Use Cases

• Benchmark assembly improvements based on summative metrics mentioned in the description
• Validate the quality of an updated genome assembly (GBIG) against its predecessor (GBI)
• Select appropriate assembly versions for downstream analysis based on comparative summary statistics

Strengths

• Dataset is small (5.5 KB), facilitating quick download and inspection.
• Has a clear, permissive license (CC-BY-4.0) for reuse.
• Provides a direct comparison between two specific genome assembly versions.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
