The **Popular Species** section lists commonly used model organisms, allowing for quick selection of their genome browsers. Clicking on a species will display the default assembly version for that organism.

Some regions of an older assembly may shift or change, while sequencing errors from previous data may be corrected in an updated version. For example, the updated reference genome hg38 contains many improvements over the hg19 assembly, some of which may include contigs that were merged together or placed where there were previously sequence gaps. To change the assembly version, click the **Assembly** option under **Find Position**.

The search box allows users to find genome assemblies by entering different types of queries: Searching by **species name**: Ovis aries Searching by **common name**: dog Searching by **GC accession number**: GCF_016699485.2

The **Species Tree** option displays a phylogenetic tree that can be navigated using scrolling or by clicking different parts of the tree. Hovering over a branch will reveal the lineage branch name. **Note**: The Species Tree does not include all available Genome Browser assemblies. The process of adding Genome Browsers has been streamlined, enabling rapid releases but omitting certain previous features, such as inclusion in the Species Tree. To find a specific assembly, use the assembly search box.

This will direct you to the **Genome Assembly Search and Request page.** Steps to request an assembly: 1. Enter the **species name, common name, or GC accession number** of the assembly. 2. Click the **request button**. 3. Fill out the required information on the submission page.

Once an assembly is selected, users can search for specific genome locations using: - Genome positions (e.g., chr1:1000000-2000000) - Gene names (e.g., BRCA1) For more details on valid position queries, visit the [Querying the Genome Browser](/goldenPath/help/query.html) page.
