Description
Situation: Dr. Kent Chapman, a professor from the University of North Texas, attended my talk at the SS-ASPB meeting earlier this year. He's followed up with me after the conference to request that the jojoba genome be added to IGB. We recently integrated GenArk, a genome-rich datasource, with IGB, but they don't yet host this genome, either.
Task: Add the jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) genome to IGB. Kent co-authored a paper describing this new genome assembly which I'll link below. The genome assembly and meta-data has been deposited in the Beijing Institute of Genomics (BIG) data center under the accession no. GWHAASQ00000000.

Kent's email from March 30th, 2025:
Paige, Thank you again for your excellent presentation about your integrated genomics resources. If you could include jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) in your database and web interface, that might be useful.
I think everything is referenced here in this paper and/or accessible online or through supplemental materials. If you need something else, let me know.
