📣BacDive API Update
Version 2 for the BacDive API endpoints ⌨️ has been introduced due to changes in the structure of the Genome Sequences data.
‼️We recommend migrating as new data added in latest, and upcoming, releases is only available through the BacDive API v2!

🧬 #BacDive is also taking a long-awaited leap into the world of genomics with the debut of a genome browser 🔎🖥️.
For the first time, BacDive now displays genomic information. The genome browser feature lists and visualizes #Bakta annotations of #INSDC genome assemblies.
DSMZ Digital Diversity
🗝️🧫 Additionally, from February 2026, registration through the DSMZ Keycloak server is not required anymore to use the BacDive API. Our API is now freely accessible 📂 - no sign-up, no account needed 🎉.
The 2025 #BacDive 🦠 release is now online.
🎉🥳 The database now contains information on more than 100,000 strains 🧫.
For this update, new data provided by @leibniz-dsmz.bsky.social and information on type strains of newly described species from the #LPSN database were added.
✨With this update, #BacDive additionally receives a new look 🖥️.
The new website, which had been in beta test phase for the last six months, adopts the shared modern design of @dsmzd3.bsky.social, which offers users an intuitive navigation and more clearly structured strain detail pages.
