Roost aggregates over 1,300 publications and 2,000 avian genomes
The Roost resource unifies 1300 publications and 2000 genome assemblies to analyze host susceptibility to highly pathogenic avian influenza. Approximately 51% of species with HPAI detections are missing from the analyzed corpus.
- Field
- genetics and genomes
- What they did
- Created the Roost web resource, which combined over 1,300 publications and a catalog of more than 2,000 bird genome assemblies to analyze host susceptibility to highly pathogenic avian influenza.
- Why it matters
- Enables linking species, genes, and molecular mechanisms to supporting evidence, addressing the fact that current research focuses mainly on poultry and model organisms while leaving many threatened species unstudied.
