I found quite often this term in recent papers. As far as I understand the "essentially complete genome", means that even though the genome is not closed, all the genetic features for that specific taxon were sequenced. However, I would like to read a definition of this concept. Do you know any reference for that?

IMO I don't think there is a strict definition for this term

Well, I found this terminology quite useless then. When do you think should be used?
