ARB & SILVA

SILVA in 2026: a global core biodata resource for rRNA within the DSMZ digital diversity Our new publication about the SILVA database has been published online by the NAR database issue: doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk…

Our featured GCBR of the week is SILVA providing comprehensive datasets of aligned small and large subunit ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences for all three domains of life, Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya.

Global biodata resources are at risk - funding models are fragile and unsustainable. Support the GBC's Open Letter to call for solutions. Science leaders have already signed the letter, please join them. Read and sign the letter here bit.ly/3UT0c6n #biodatacounts

Our featured GCBR of the week is @BacDive, the largest database worldwide for standardised bacterial information. Click the link to find out more bit.ly/48sMtci @DZIF_ @dfg_public @BMBF_Bund @Leibniz_DSMZ_en #globalbiodata #openscience

Maintenance is finished and SILVA is available again! Have a nice week, The SILVA team

SILVA and SILVAngs will be unavailable during the upcoming weekend due to extensive network maintenance at our institute. Our services will be unavailable/interrupted between Friday, 25 October 6 PM CEST and Monday, 28 October 10 AM CET. We are sorry for the inconvenience!

🎉 This week we’re celebrating #OpenAccess week! This year’s theme continues to focus on “Community” to raise awareness around the importance of community control of knowledge-sharing systems.
