Final sequence index released!

The final sequence index file is released on the FTP site
http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/sequence_indices/20130422.sequence.index

The corresponding analysis.sequence.index that contains only >70bp long Illumina reads is
http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/sequence_indices/20130422.analysis.sequence.index

You may find different stats files for this release in http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/sequence_indices. We have achieved our goal of 2500 samples for both low coverage and exome projects! The overlap between >5Gb exome samples and >10Gb low coverage samples is also greater than 2500 (2564).

New sequence index released

Another sequence index file is released on the FTP site

http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/sequence_indices/20130408.sequence.index

The corresponding analysis.sequence.index that contains only >70bp long Illumina reads is

You may find different stats files for this release in http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/sequence_indices. We are very close to our goal of 2500 samples for both low coverage and exome projects!

Project Overview

The 1000 Genomes Project is an international collaboration to produce an extensive public catalog of human genetic variation, including SNPs and structural variants, and their haplotype contexts. This resource will support genome-wide association studies and other medical research studies.

The genomes of about 2500 unidentified people from about 25 populations around the world will be sequenced using next-generation sequencing technologies. The results of the study will be freely and publicly accessible to researchers worldwide.

Further information about the project is available in the About tab. Information about downloading, browsing or using the 1000 Genomes data is available in the Data tab.
