All Genomes

Taxonomy

All essentially complete, public genomes are available in NMPDR to support extensive comparative analysis. NMPDR core genomes are listed first, followed by 44 Archaea, 675 Bacteria, and 29 Eucarya in alphabetical order.

Type to narrow selection (help)

Select one genome and click "Go" to open its Organism Overview page where you can explore features in subsystems, or explore all features using the Genome Browser.

View the phylogenetic tree of all the genomes in NMPDR as determined by rRNA analysis. Archaea appear at the top of the page, Bacteria in the center, and Eucarya are at the bottom. Use the "find in page" function of your browser to locate your favorite organism, or browse by scrolling.

Notice to NMPDR Users - The NMPDR BRC contract has ended and bacterial data from NMPDR has been transferred to PATRIC (http://www.patricbrc.org), a new consolidated BRC for all NIAID category A-C priority pathogenic bacteria. NMPDR was a collaboration among researchers from the Computation Institute of the University of Chicago, the Fellowship for Interpretation of Genomes (FIG), Argonne National Laboratory, and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois. NMPDR is funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract HHSN266200400042C.
