Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB; https://gtdb.ecogenomic.org) is an initiative to establish a standardised microbial taxonomy based on genome phylogeny.
Our @narjournal.bsky.social manuscript is out! It explores the growth of the GTDB (gtdb.ecogenomic.org) since its inception, as well as updates to the website, methodology, policies, and major taxonomic and nomenclatural changes over the past three years.
