New features include:</p> + <ul> + <li>Richer annotation of metadata (journal DOIs, specimen georeferences, Genbank accession numbers, etc) </li> + <li>A mapping between taxon labels and taxonomic names in uBio and NCBI for improved normalization of names</li> + <li>The ability to visualize and edit trees using Phylowidget</li> + <li>The ability to search on tree topology</li> + <li>Persistent and resolvable URIs for data objects in TreeBASE (i.e. studies, trees, matrices) serve as both globally unique identification numbers and resource locators. These can be included in articles and on researcher's websites, making access to TreeBASE data only a click away</li> + <li>Data are delivered in several serializations, including <a href="https://www.nescent.org/wg_phyloinformatics/Supporting_NEXUS_Documentation" target="_blank">NEXUS</a> and <a href="http://www.nexml.org" target="_blank">NeXML</a></li> + <li> A special URL gives journal editors and reviewers anonymous advanced access to data</li> + <li>Programmatic access to the data using the <a href="https://www.nescent.org/wg_evoinfo/PhyloWS" target="_blank">PhyloWS API</a>. Queries are expressed in URLs using PhyloWS syntax and can return results in RDF as RSS 1.0 feeds, which means that users can set their favorite RSS Reader to fetch all new TreeBASE studies that satisfy a particular query (e.g. return all studies published in "Systematic Biology," or return all trees that include "Homo sapiens," etc)</li> + </ul> + <p> + As of early 2010, TreeBASE contains 6,500 trees in 2,500 publications written by 4,500 different authors.
