An average of 66,046 traditional records were added and/or updated per day.</p><p>Between releases 212.0 and 213.0, the WGS component of GenBank grew by 52,342,209,341 base pairs and by 5,909,777 sequence records; during the same period, the TSA component of GenBank grew by 5,878,608,582 base pairs and by 6,015,248 sequence records.</p><p>The total number of sequence data files increased by 29 with this release. The divisions are as follows:
<ul><li class="half_rhythm"><div>BCT: 14 new files, now a total of 238</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>CON: 4 new files, now a total of 334</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>ENV: 2 new files, now a total of 91</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>GSS: 1 new file, now a total of 300</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>PAT: 5 new files, now a total of 251</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>PRI: 1 less file, now a total of 53</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>TSA: 34 new files, now a total of 228</div></li><li class="half_rhythm"><div>VRT: 1 less file, now a total of 60</div></li></ul></p><p>For downloading purposes, please keep in mind that the uncompressed GenBank flat files require approximately 771 GB (sequence files only); the ASN.1 data require approximately 633 GB.</p><p>More information about GenBank release 213.0, including current and upcoming changes like <a href="/books/n/newsncbi/N2016-03/#news_03-02-2016-phase-out-of-GI-numbers">the change from GI sequence identifiers to accession.version</a>, is available in the <a href="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/genbank/gbrel.txt" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri">release notes</a>.</p></div><div id="bk_toc_contnr"></div></div></div>
