Genome Announcements™ is a new online-only, fully open access journal
that publishes short manuscripts announcing the availability of recently
sequenced genomes of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes and viruses in
public databases. These announcements inform readers of the availability
of new genome sequences and provide the rationale for sequencing a
particular organism, as well as details of the methodologies and protocols
used in assembly of the genome sequence.
The following data presents the Top 20 sequencing instruments and assembly software programs
used by Genome Announcements authors.

Infection and Immunity (IAI) reports key discoveries that help microbiologists,
immunologists, epidemiologists, pathologists and clinicians to gain new insights
into the underlying mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions and develop novel
strategies to prevent or treat infectious diseases. Specific areas of interest include
mechanisms of molecular pathogenesis, virulence factors, cellular microbiology,
experimental models of infection, host resistance or susceptibility, and the
generation of innate and adaptive immune responses.
