Species Overview

This module lists all 326 cnidarian species for which an assembly is recorded in CnidoSite. Of these, 145 have a gene-model table (protein-coding gene coordinates) and are therefore the genomes queried by the gene-level modules (Gene Search, InterPro, Pfam, KEGG, GO, gene family, expression and so on). The remaining 181 have no gene models: 178 are assembly-only, and 3 carry functional annotation (GO/InterPro/Pfam/PANTHER/KEGG) but no gene-model table, so they appear in those modules but not in Gene Search. All three states are marked below.

Assembly-level counts. Chromosome 97 · Complete Genome 1 · Contig 55 · Scaffold 173. Chromosome-level assemblies (chromosome + complete genome) therefore number 98.
Why do the counts differ between pages? The assembly-level breakdown above describes every assembly deposited for the phylum (including assembly-only records). Modules that need gene models — annotation, orthology, expression, single-cell, proteomics — can only use the 145 genomes that have gene models, so those pages report a smaller denominator. Wherever a paper figure quotes a different total this is the reason, and the per-page denominator is now stated on the page itself.

 Data Coverage Matrix

How many records of each data type CnidoSite holds for each species. Every populated cell links straight into that module with the species already selected, so this table doubles as an index into the whole site. Use the filters to search by species name, restrict to one class, or to find the species that have a particular data type. The same table is also on a page of its own (coverage_matrix.php). The Download TSV / Download Excel buttons in the filter row below export whatever the filters currently select, not just the page on screen.

How to read a cell. A number is the count of records of that data type held for the species (samples, peaks, occurrences, mitochondrial gene sets …) — columns: Gene models, Transcriptome, Single-cell, Proteome, Epigenome, Metagenome, Phenotype, Mitogenome. A means the data type is present but is catalogued as a single resource rather than a set of countable records — columns: Genome, Function, Gene family, Co-expression, Paleobiology, TE, JBrowse. A inside the Mitogenome column is the same idea at the level of one cell: the mitochondrial genome is catalogued from its GenBank record, but no gene-level annotation is held for that species yet, so there is no gene count to give (those cells read NA in the TSV). A · means the data type is genuinely not available for that species in this release. Every populated cell is a link: it opens that module with the species already selected. Clicking a species name opens its species portal, which lists every resource it has on one page.
Reading the Genome and Gene models columns. Genome is set when the species has an assembly record (size, scaffold/contig N50, BUSCO, accession) — all 326 species have one. Gene models is set only when this database also carries the predicted gene set for that assembly, which is true for 145 species. A row that has Genome but no Gene models therefore means “the assembly is catalogued here, but it has not been annotated in CnidoSite”, not “data are missing by mistake”. The matrix is rebuilt from the live database every hour; the same table is available as tab-separated text for scripted access, or as an Excel workbook if you would rather work in a spreadsheet. Both carry exactly the same cells and honour the filters above; the workbook freezes the header and the first two columns and ships a second sheet explaining the column codes.
