Question - Is it possible to download synthetic sequences (taxid 81077) with ngd #18

Hello, This script has worked great for downloading many sequences. However, I am now trying to download synthetic sequences (taxid 81077). I used gimme_taxa.py -j -o /synthetic.txt 81077 to create a file with all descendent taxids. The problem is these synthetic sequences do not fall into a group supported by ngd. The lineage is - other sequences; artificial sequences. Can ngd be used to download these sequences? If not is there an easy way to download them? Thanks,

Hi, shouldn't this be a feature request at https://github.com/kblin/ncbi-genome-download ?

Yes you are correct. I had two tabs open and posted in the wrong one. I will post in the correct repository. Thanks,
