Hello all. I am re-exploring Galaxy after a year hiatus. While I searched the archives to no avail it is possible that my question/complaint was already answered. If so, please ignore. I find the placement of Mouse-ear Cress (arabidopsis) in the 'select a reference genome' list to be strange. It appears that the list is sorted by scientific name first and then by name. However this does not seem to be true in the case of arabidopsis thaliana but is true for arabidopsis lyrata. Granted the auto-complete feature (e.g., when I start typing 'ara...' then the selection list is narrowed) helps in finding A. thaliana however, especially for an organism beginning with 'a' the misplacement of A. thaliana (in my opinion) is striking. On a side note, I find the drop down for the reference genome to be too small (in terms of width in particular). I have to view and scroll through a lot of two or three line entries but if the width was larger then it would be possible to see more entries at one time. -- Rick Westerman westerman@purdue.edu Bioinformatics specialist at the Genomics Facility.
