Downloading 1 by 1 is taking an eternity.
I have a refseq_mito.txt file with 115 RefSeq accession numbers for mitochondrial genomes (examples below)
refseq_mito.txt contents example:
NC_019663.1
NC_023340.1
NC_019642.1
NC_005291.1
NC_023371.1
I've tried to input this refseq_mito.txt into Batch Entrez (Database: Genome) which sends me to this page:
which sends me to a page showing 10 tick genome NOT mitochondria:
What am I doing wrong? How can I get FASTA & GFF of the mitochondria I'm interested in?
Have you tried clicking the link that says "Retrieve records for 110 UIDs"? That is what you probably want.
GFF files for mitochondrial genomes are not directly available. You have to select a genome e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NC_011943.1 and then click on Send to -> File -> Format -> GFF3
The "Retrieve records for 110 UIDs" just sends me to the 10 tick genomes page (Shown above, second picture) with no mention of mitochondria.
I can individually click on the mitochondrial genomes to manually download both FASTA and GFF but this will be time consuming for over 100 mitochondrial genomes.
Can you post a few example accession numbers?
