Accession numbers of the profilin cDNA sequences obtained after RT-PCR from pollen of five plant species: Olea europaea, Betula pendula, Corylus avellana, Phleum pratense and Zea mays.

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) is international, innovative and interdisciplinary, and a champion of open data in the life sciences. The EMBL-EBI captures and presents globally comprehensive sequence data as part of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration. Data provided to GBIF include geotagged environmental sequences with user-provided taxonomic identifications. This dataset contains INSDC sequences associated with environmental sample identifiers. The dataset is prepared periodically using the public ENA API (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/) by querying data with the search parameters: environmental_sample=True & host="" EMBL-EBI also publishes other records in separate datasets (https://www.gbif.org/publisher/ada9d123-ddb4-467d-8891-806ea8d94230). The data was then processed as follows: 1. Human sequences were excluded. 2. For non-CONTIG records, the sample accession number (when available) along with the scientific name were used to identify sequence records corresponding to the same individuals (or group of organism of the same species in the same sample). Only one record was kept for each scientific name/sample accession number. 3. Contigs and whole genome shotgun (WGS) records were added individually. 4. The records that were missing some information were excluded. Only records associated with a specimen voucher or records containing both a location AND a date were kept. 5. The records associated with the same vouchers are aggregated together. 6. A lot of records left corresponded to individual sequences or reads corresponding to the same organisms. In practise, these were "duplicate" occurrence records that weren't filtered out in STEP 2 because the sample accession sample was missing. To identify those potential duplicates, we grouped all the remaining records by scientific_name, collection_date, location, country, identified_by, collected_by and sample_accession (when available). Then we excluded the groups that contained more than 50 records. The rationale behind the choice of threshold is explained here: Deduplication v2 gbif/embl-adapter#10 (comment) 7. To improve the matching of the EBI scientific name to the GBIF backbone taxonomy, we incorporated the ENA taxonomic information. The kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, and genus were obtained from the ENA taxonomy checklist available here: http://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/ena/taxonomy/sdwca.zip More information available here: https://github.com/gbif/embl-adapter#readme You can find the mapping used to format the EMBL data to Darwin Core Archive here: https://github.com/gbif/embl-adapter/blob/master/DATAMAPPING.md

Background: The EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database is a comprehensive database of DNA and RNA sequences and related information traditionally made available in flat-file format. Queries through tools such as SRS (Sequence Retrieval System) also return data in flat-file format. Flat files have a number of shortcomings, however, and the resources therefore currently lack a flexible environment to meet individual researchers' needs. The Object Management Group's common object request broker architecture (CORBA) is an industry standard that provides platform-independent programming interfaces and models for portable distributed object-oriented computing applications. Its independence from programming languages, computing platforms and network protocols makes it attractive for developing new applications for querying and distributing biological data. Results: A CORBA infrastructure developed by EMBL-EBI provides an efficient means of accessing and distributing EMBL data. The EMBL object model is defined such that it provides a basis for specifying interfaces in interface definition language (IDL) and thus for developing the CORBA servers. The mapping from the object model to the relational schema in the underlying Oracle database uses the facilities provided by PersistenceTM, an object/relational tool. The techniques of developing loaders and 'live object caching' with persistent objects achieve a smart live object cache where objects are created on demand. The objects are managed by an evictor pattern mechanism. Conclusions: The CORBA interfaces to the EMBL database address some of the problems of traditional flat-file formats and provide an efficient means for accessing and distributing EMBL data. CORBA also provides a flexible environment for users to develop their applications by building clients to our CORBA servers, which can be integrated into existing systems.

PROSITE is a database of protein families and domains. It consists of biologically significant sites, patterns and profiles that help to reliably identify to which known protein family a new sequence belongs. PROSITE is based at the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (SIB), Geneva, Switzerland.

This dataset contains INSDC sequences associated with environmental sample identifiers. The dataset is prepared periodically using the public ENA API (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/portal/api/) by querying data with the search parameters: `environmental_sample=True & host=""`

EMBL-EBI also publishes other records in separate datasets (https://www.gbif.org/publisher/ada9d123-ddb4-467d-8891-806ea8d94230).

The data was then processed as follows:

1. Human sequences were excluded.

2. For non-CONTIG records, the sample accession number (when available) along with the scientific name were used to identify sequence records corresponding to the same individuals (or group of organism of the same species in the same sample). Only one record was kept for each scientific name/sample accession number.

3. Contigs and whole genome shotgun (WGS) records were added individually.

4. The records that were missing some information were excluded. Only records associated with a specimen voucher or records containing both a location AND a date were kept.

5. The records associated with the same vouchers are aggregated together.

6. A lot of records left corresponded to individual sequences or reads corresponding to the same organisms. In practise, these were "duplicate" occurrence records that weren't filtered out in STEP 2 because the sample accession sample was missing. To identify those potential duplicates, we grouped all the remaining records by `scientific_name`, `collection_date`, `location`, `country`, `identified_by`, `collected_by` and `sample_accession` (when available). Then we excluded the groups that contained more than 50 records. The rationale behind the choice of threshold is explained here: https://github.com/gbif/embl-adapter/issues/10#issuecomment-855757978
