- It distinguishes gene function, observed experimental outcomes, and related-strain findings, and warns that an interval does not validate an edit.
Field notes
The listed references extend beyond E. coli to B. subtilis 168 and S. cerevisiae S288C, while including multiple E. coli strain records and derivatives. The homepage says linked evidence should be interpreted separately from gene function and related-strain findings; it explicitly cautions that an interval does not establish a validated edit or predict experimental results.
