IGB is distributed with a tab-delimited file called "species.txt" that lists binomial names for species with sequence genomes along with their common names.
IGB uses these data to populate the Species menu in the Current Genome tab.

If you are building a QuickLoad site for a newly sequenced genome, create a species.txt file containing your newly added species to ensure that the IGB Species menu will display the genus, peciesspecies, and common names properly. |
Species.txt
For an example, see: http://www.igbquickload.org/quickload/species.txt
.
The species.txt file that is distributed with IGB is version-controlled and resides in the igb/resource directory in the project repository.
