*"Pending" indicates that we are waiting for DNA or the DNA is waiting to enter the production process; "in production" includes both library creation and production sequencing; "draft assembly" is the first assembly, made without finishing the genome; "finishing" is postproduction work not carried out for all organisms; "final assembly" is the process of assembling the finished genome; "annotation" refers to automated finding of genes and assignment of functions; genomes on which we do not plan further work are labeled "done".

**"Reads released" indicates that reads have been sent to the GenBank Trace Archive; release dates indicate the date an assembly was made publicly available.
