How to download to Bacterial genome sequences database in NCBI

Question

[park.seojeong2]

Hi everyone.

Bacterial genome database in NCBI was downloaded using FTP.

I was followed the NCBI site, so I used command line that

wget --recursive --no-host-directories --cut-dirs=6 ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/all/ -P my_dir/

And I can get this mention;

Removed ‘my_dir/.listing’.

Total wall clock time: 3d 15h 39m 18s
Downloaded: 3 files, 44K in 2m 55s (259 B/s)

Final downloaded file is only three; README.txt, README_assembly_structure.txt, README_change_notice.txt

Is that right commend line I used results?

Or do I need more steps if I want genome sequence database?

An easier way may be to just use the NCBI/Genomes website and download that way.
