WormBase follows a two month release cycle. Â Bug fixes, tool improvements, curation of additional data, corrections to data, testing of the website, all happen prior to a new release of WormBase. Â For every new release, new data from manual curation and from automated pipelines are added. Â The version or release number is displayed on the WormBase home page at the top, for eg., WS259 is the current release of WormBase. Â If you are looking at data sets periodically, please note the version/release you are looking at, because data may have changed between releases. Â A list of all the data and numbers are available in the release notes for WS259. Â Release notes are available on the Release Schedule page (link available in the footer navigation or from the home page from the top menu bar, About–>What’s New–>Release Schedule–>.) Click on the release number in the Release History table.
