The service measures the average nucleotide identity (ANI) based on BLAST+ (ANIb) and MUMmer (ANIm), as well as correlation indexes of tetra-nucleotide signatures (Tetra). In addition, it provides a Tetra Correlation Search function, which allows to rapidly compare selected genomes against a continuously updated reference database with currently about 32\u2009000 published whole and draft genome sequences. For comparison, own genomes can be uploaded and references can be selected from the JSpeciesWS reference database. The service indicates whether two genomes share genomic identities above or below the species embracing thresholds, and serves as a fast way to allocate unknown genomes in the frame of the hitherto sequenced species.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Availability and implementation: JSpeciesWS is available at http:\/\/jspecies.ribohost.com\/jspeciesws.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Contact: \u00a0mrichter@ribocon.com<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btv681","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,18]],"date-time":"2015-11-18T01:29:26Z","timestamp":1447810166000},"page":"929-931","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2703,"title":["JSpeciesWS: a web server for prokaryotic species circumscription based on pairwise genome comparison"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Michael","family":"Richter","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Ribocon GmbH, Fahrenheitstra\u00dfe. 1, 28359 Bremen, Germany,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ramon","family":"Rossell\u00f3-M\u00f3ra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2 Marine Microbiology Group, Mediterranean Institute for Advanced Studies, C\/ Miquel Marqu\u00e9s, 21, 07190, Esporles, Spain,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Frank","family":"Oliver Gl\u00f6ckner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"3 Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology, Microbial Genomics and Bioinformatics Research Group, Celsiusstra\u00dfe 1, 28359 Bremen, Germany and"},{"name":"4 Jacobs University gGmbH Bremen, Department of Life Sciences and Chemistry, Campus Ring 1, 28759 Bremen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00f6rg","family":"Peplies","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Ribocon GmbH, Fahrenheitstra\u00dfe. 1, 28359 Bremen, Germany,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023020111560918800_btv681-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3389","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/25.17.3389","article-title":"Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs","volume":"25","author":"Altschul","year":"1997","journal-title":"Nucleic Acids Res."},{"key":"2023020111560918800_btv681-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"421","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2105-10-421","article-title":"BLAST+: architecture and applications","volume":"10","author":"Camacho","year":"2009","journal-title":"BMC Bioinformatics"},{"key":"2023020111560918800_btv681-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"316","DOI":"10.1099\/ijs.0.054171-0","article-title":"Integrating genomics into the taxonomy and systematics of the Bacteria and Archaea","volume":"64","author":"Chun","year":"2014","journal-title":"Int.
