2nd Announcement: details for attending on-line Single Cell Genomics Field Days! *ALSO: a reminder on travel funding for in-person March SC Workshop!*

by Annarita Marrano

Dear agricultural genome or phenome researcher: This is a further announcement of the series of four “Field Days” on Single Cell genomics in agriculture. Also, please see below for a second reminder on travel funding for attending the AG2PI Single Cell Workshop March 29-30! Details on the four sessions can be found at: https://www.faang.org/bbs?s=2025_wkshop..txt If you are interested in attending one or more of these *free* online sessions, please register at least 2 days in advance at: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1W2aSNN0QEE-yzqehj2DHsGKa9N3fvCXHPMY9gAeZa7… We will follow up with registered people to provide Zoom information one day before the session and provide information on obtaining the sessions' recordings once they are available. *ALSO:* **We still have a handful of seats available for early career researchers to request $600 funding that will cover costs for the SC Workshop in Orlando, Florida: https://www.agbt.org/home/home/agbt-ag/agworkshops/#workshop3 If you are interested in this, have your advisor send confirmation you are eligible: that you are currently in graduate school or within 5 years of attaining your PhD.** Thanks for your interest!

REMINDER - Monthly Webinar Next Wed, Feb, 5th, at 12 PM CT

by Annarita Marrano

Hi everybody, Join us for the first monthly webinar of 2025! Next Wednesday, Feb. 5th, at 12 PM CDT, David Molik and Adam Wright from the Genome Assembly and Annotation Nomenclature working group will present their recent publication (https://doi.org/10.1093/genetics/iyaf006) and recommendations on gene and genome nomenclature. I have included more details about the webinar and the Zoom link to attend the webinar below. I hope you will join us. Best, Annarita :-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-: *Abstracts:* *Guidelines for Gene and Genome Assembly Nomenclature (GAAN)* Clear and informative naming schemes enhance the utility of genome assemblies and gene annotations. We present a comprehensive nomenclature framework which incorporates species, sequencing group, colony/breed/strain, version, and other critical metadata in a well-structured format. This approach aligns with standards from AgBioData discussions and ensures compatibility with major repositories such as those in the INSDC. To facilitate adoption, we developed the Gene and Genome Assembly Nomenclature (GAAN) tool for validating names under these guidelines. Future iterations of GAAN will integrate external databases like the Darwin Tree of Life Identifiers and the Vertebrate Breed Ontology for further validation. *| 1P ET | 12P CT | 11A MT | 10A PT |* Find your local time here <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=AgBioData+Monthly…> *Join Zoom Meetinghttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/82038356125?pwd=YVFMRElMdEpHZmtObXFvZlA4QVFXQT09 <https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82038356125?pwd=YVFMRElMdEpHZmtObXFvZlA4QVFXQT09>* Meeting ID: 820 3835 6125 Passcode: 160683
