Proper Citation: NCBI Taxonomy (RRID:SCR_003256)

Description: Database for a curated classification and nomenclature that contains the names of all organisms that are represented in the public sequence databases with at least one nucleotide or protein sequence. Data provided encompasses archaea, bacteria, eukaryota, viroids and viruses. The NCBI taxonomy database is not a primary source for taxonomic or phylogenetic information. Furthermore, the database does not follow a single taxonomic treatise but rather attempts to incorporate phylogenetic and taxonomic knowledge from a variety of sources, including the published literature, web-based databases, and the advice of sequence submitters and outside taxonomy experts. Consequently, the NCBI taxonomy database is not a phylogenetic or taxonomic authority and should not be cited as such.

Abbreviations: NCBI Taxonomy

Defining Citation: PMID:18940862, PMID:18940867
