Fig. 1: DSI is “mixed together” in a global dataset regardless of UN fora.

From: Harmonize rules for digital sequence information benefit-sharing across UN frameworks

Fig. 1

Left side of the diagram: taxonomic distribution across 8 phylogenetic groups organized in a cladogram based on their phylogeny relative to the last universal common ancestor, LUCA and 2 groups without taxonomic information. “Virus” and “Other eukaryota” are non-monophyletic groups. The dashed and faded line connecting viruses to LUCA indicates uncertainties in the phylogenetic relationship of the group. The thickness of the lines connecting the two sides of the diagram is proportional to the number of sequences assigned to each taxonomic category and UN fora. Right side of the diagram: assignment of sequences to relevant UN fora based on absolute number of sequence entries in the database. DSI are color-coded indicating whether a country tag was explicitly indicated in the ENA metadata of each individual entry (yellow) as country of origin or if the tag was missing (blue). In parentheses, the percentage relative to the total dataset. See Supplementary Note 1 for details. Created in BioRender. Faggionato, D. (2024) BioRender.com/w04m281.
