Retrieving organism name

Question

[saadleeshehreen]

Hi,

I usually use the following command to get GCF_id (Accession) from the NCBI. How Can I retrieve the "organism name/source" from NCBI?

cat NZ_id.txt | while read i; do elink -db nuccore -id $i -target assembly|esummary|    xtract -pattern DocumentSummary -element AssemblyAccession ; done

Cheers

Changing from -element AssemblyAccession to -element Organism or -element SpeciesName will do.
