EBP-affiliated groups are actively sequencing in several of these biodiversity hotspots as we move toward 5,000 high-quality reference genomes.

🔬 Reference genomes help us:
• Spot population decline early
• Understand climate-resilience traits (heat, drought, disease)
• Guide smarter conservation

The EBP-affiliates are building a global reference genome library to benefit species worldwide. As EBP Executive Council chair Harris Lewin recently noted: “As the biodiversity crisis gathers pace, so must our sequencing.”

EBP-affiliates are scaling up genome sequencing.
