There are several ways to contribute to the ERGA Community #GenomeReports Collection: 🔗 Link a genome report published elsewhere ✏️ Upload a preprint 📑 Submit a report for peer review and publication via @RIOJournal riojournal.com/topical_collec…

📄🧬 Genome Reports are technical publications that support good research practices and ✔️allow for the recognition of everyone who contributed to the production of the resource in a citable way ✔️support open and reproducible science ✔️accelerate use and application of genomes

📄🧬 Published a genome report or looking to publish one? The ERGA Community Genome Reports Collection hosted @RIOJournal is an open platform for reports produced by the ERGA community. 🔗 Learn more & contribute: erga-biodiversity.eu/post/the-erga-… #genomes #biodiversity #GenomeReport
