*Recommendations from the AgBioData GFF3 working group*
Over a year ago, AgBioData convened a discussion on GFF3 formatting issues,
led by Scott Cain. This discussion led us to form the AgBioData GFF3
working group. Our goals are to 1) identify common problems with the GFF3
format; 2) recommend solutions for these problems; and 3) promote community
adoption of these recommendations, so that data can be formatted in
standard ways across databases. Members of AgBioData, the Alliance of
Genome Resources, and NCBI have been working on these goals for the past
year. We are now ready to receive feedback from the AgBioData community on
our recommendations, in order to get traction on the final goal – community
adoption of these solutions.
In this webinar, we will give an overview of our recommendations and will
open up the floor for a stimulating discussion. If possible, please review
our recommendations prior to the webinar:

Dear AG2PI community member,
The next AG2PI Field Day is on Wednesday, June 16 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM
(Central Time, -5 GMT). This field day will focus on Functional Annotation
of ANimal Genomes (FAANG). During this event, three members of FAANG will
share the consortium’s goals and its aspirations to provide resources for
understanding the genome of all livestock and aquaculture species. The
speakers will discuss how the consortium was envisioned, the foundations
that were laid, its current activities, and future plans, providing an
example of a successful consortium in the agricultural genomics space.
We invite you to register for this Zoom event at
https://tinyurl.com/AG2PI-FD8. Upon registration, you will receive a
confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. A link to
join the meeting will also be provided the day of the event on the AG2PI
website <http://ag2pi.org>. If you are unable to attend the live session,
then you will be able to find a recording at ag2pi.org/
<https://www.ag2pi.org/>, at a later date. Space IS limited, so register
soon.
Feel free to share this message and the attached flyer with colleagues at
your institution.
Kind regards,
Nicole
