Tutorial: Genome Annotation Service

Overview

This set of short videos provides a step-by-step demonstration of using the PATRIC Genome Annotation Service to annotate a genome from a set a bacterial contig files.

1. Uploading contig files to the PATRIC workspace (12:08)

2. Submitting a job to the PATRIC Genome Annotation Service (7:08)

3. Reviewing the resulting Genome Report (21:33)

4. Downloading the generated files (11:06)

5. Viewing your annotated genome in PATRIC (16:53)

6. Finding help or reporting problems with the service (4:26)
