These data have + specific conditions for use. + The lamprey (petMar2) browser annotation tracks were generated by UCSC and collaborators + worldwide. See the + Credits + page for a detailed list of the organizations and individuals who contributed to this release. + + ++ 20 December 2012 - 28 New Vertebrate Assemblies! Over the past several weeks, we have released 28 new vertebrate assemblies on the public Genome Browser website, featuring 22 new species and 6 assembly updates. These assemblies were added to support the 60-species Conservation track on the latest mouse assembly (mm10/GRCm38). Several of these species were originally sequenced and assembled for the Mammalian Genome Project (Lindblad-Toh et al., Nature 2011)*. Primates:
