Description
Situation: Dr. Camellia Okpodu of the University of Wyoming is studying the effects of herbicides on Euphorbia esula (leafy spurge), a noxious invasive weed. As of January 2026 there does not appear to be a good reference genome for leafy spurge (NCBI link), so Dr. Okpodu has aligned her data to Euphorbia lathyris (NCBI link).
Task: Add Euphorbia lathyris and its annotation to IGB Quickload. Also, we're increasing scope to include adding this genome to the IGB carousel.
Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/genome/GCF_963576675.1/
Note: Only the NCBI RefSeq assembly (GCF) includes the annotation, so please use that one.

Request:
- Please do not add the genome file to the Quickload
- Use the "file" tag to point to the genome sequence 2bit file hosted at UCSC
Making a separate ticket for updating the IGB codebase with the image.
