The New Ensembl Site
The new Ensembl provides access to over 4700 genomes: http://beta.ensembl.org
There are over 4100 animal, 470 plant, and 100 fungal genomes ready to explore. We provide pangenomes for many species including human (565 haplotypes), barley (69 cultivars), and pig (27 breeds).
Genomes from projects such as Darwin Tree of Life, the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium, the Vertebrate Genomes Project and the European Reference Genome Atlas are regularly added.
We are in the process of migrating our existing prokaryotic genomes, with a target of moving all ~36,000 by July 2026. Prokaryotic releases will be phased, with batches migrating from Feb 2026 onwards.
From the summer of 2026, all new data will only be available through this new Ensembl site. Important info for programmatic access is available on this blog.
