Adjust your names in organism and description until they are appropriate. This organism name is the name that appears in the genome pull-down menu on the browser gateway page.

scientificName - specifies the scientific name for the assembly.

defaultPos - specifies the default position the genome browser will open when a user first views this assembly. This is usually selected to highlight a popular gene or region of interest in the genome assembly.

orderKey - used with other genome definitions at this hub to order the genome pull-down.

htmlPath - refers to an html file that is used on the gateway page to display information for a novel assembly.
