Jen,

Thank you very much for the information. They are very informative.

I found the htgs and wgs databases information there. What does nt 28-Jan-2013 
stand for?

Meantime, if I am looking for virus containing database, I found wgs is one. 
Can anyone confirm or advice further if there is other options (database)?

Thank you again!
Kathryn

Hi Kathryn,

These first three are three different types of sequence databases available 
from GenBank The last is a genome assembly for the phiX174 genome.

Information about all can be found here:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/

There are many uses, one example is covered in our Metagenomics publication:

Thanks!

Dear galaxy members,

I have a question on the databases used in megablast module from galaxy. There 
are four db options to blast against with -

1.      htgs 28-Jan-2013

2.      nt 28-Jan-2013

3.      wgs 28-Jan-2013

4.      phiX174
Is there any further information to guide which database would be appropriate 
to use? In addition, how to find the genome information contained in each 
database?

Many thanks,
Kathryn
