FAANG - Functional Annotation of Farm Animal Genomes aims to deliver standardized datasets from a limited set of individuals representing species which have reference quality draft genome assemblies and substantial publicly available phenotypic datasets.

​FAANG - Europe COST Action will facilitate the aims of the FAANG project through coordination, development of agreed standards for experiments, data and metadata, training and dissemination of standards and results.

​The European project AQUA-FAANG - "Advancing European Aquaculture by Genome Functional Annotation" aims to improve understanding the genome function and usage of genotype-to-phenotype prediction in the six most important European farmed fish species. ​AQUA-FAANG brings together world-leading interdisciplinary expertise and industry partners providing direct pathways to commercial exploitation. 

The H2020 project BovReg - "Identification of functionally active genomic features relevant to phenotypic diversity and plasticity in cattle" will provide a comprehensive map of functionally active genomic features in cattle and how their (epi)genetic variation in beef and dairy breeds translates into phenotypes.
