I'm happy to announce the latest release of the GlobDB, available at globdb.org.
The GlobDB is a database of "species dereplicated" microbial genomes, and as of release 226 contains twice the number of species-representative genomes (306,260) than the latest GTDB release.

Do we brag on this thing (or did we leave that behind in the other place)? Because Dawn Sumner and I wrote what I think is a pretty cool perspective on why we should consider ecology and evolution when discussing early oxygenic photosynthesis and the GOE. tinyurl.com/mwsdras5
Physiology, Not Nutrient Availability, May Have Limited Primary Productivity After the Emergence of Oxygenic Photosynthesis
The evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis in Cyanobacteria was a transformative event in Earth's history. However, the scientific community disagrees over the duration of the delay between the origin ....
