Table 2 AgBase GO annotations by species and evidence code.

Species	GO Associations	No. Proteins Annotated	UniParc Proteins Annotated (ISS)	No. Papers Curated
Chicken	1 007	142	80	24
Cow	4 411	382	4	13
Sheep	316	61	0	0
Channel Catfish	19	3	0	2

We aim to increase the coverage of GO annotations in agriculturally important species and we are currently GO annotating chicken, cow, sheep and channel catfish. To improve GO coverage, we determine which proteins currently have no GO annotations and use GOanna to do a 'first-pass' annotation based on sequence homology (ISS). We have also provided GO annotations via literature curation for chicken, cow and channel catfish. We do not currently provide IEA annotations.
