Novel and improved Caenorhabditis briggsae gene models generated by community curation.

Background: The nematode Caenorhabditis briggsae has been used as a model in comparative genomics studies with Caenorhabditis elegans because of their striking morphological and behavioral similarities. However, the potential of C. briggsae for comparative studies is limited by the quality of its genome resources.

Novel and improved gene models generated by community curation.

Background: The nematode has been used as a model for genomics studies compared to because of its striking morphological and behavioral similarities. These studies yielded numerous findings that have expanded our understanding of nematode development and evolution. However, the potential of to study nematode biology is limited by the quality of its genome resources.
