Genome 10K Project
The Genome 10K project (G10K) aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction in DNA sequencing suggests that this project will be feasible within a few years. Capturing the genetic diversity of vertebrate species would create an unprecedented resource for the life sciences and for worldwide conservation efforts. BGI (Previously known as Beijing Genomics Institute)and The Genome 10K Consortium of Scientists (G10KCOS) together announced a plan to sequence the genomes of the first 101 vertebrate species using BGI's facilities and infrastructure of next sequencing technology and bioinformatics platform by the end of 2012.
