The Genomes On Line Database (GOLD) is a comprehensive resource for centralized monitoring of genome and metagenome projects worldwide. Both complete and ongoing projects, along with their associated metadata, can be accessed in GOLD through precomputed tables and a search page. As of September 2009, GOLD contains information for more than 5800 sequencing projects, of which 1100 have been completed and their sequence data deposited in a public repository. GOLD continues to expand, moving toward the goal of providing the most comprehensive repository of metadata information related to the projects and their organisms/environments in accordance with the Minimum Information about a (Meta)Genome Sequence (MIGS/MIMS) specification. GOLD is available at: http://www.genomesonline.org and has a mirror site at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Crete, Greece, at: http://gold.imbb.forth.gr/
基因组在线数据库（GOLD）是一个用于集中监测全球基因组和宏基因组项目的综合资源。通过预计算的表格和搜索页面，可以在 GOLD 中访问完整和正在进行的项目及其相关元数据。截至 2009 年 9 月，GOLD 包含了超过 5800 个测序项目的信息，其中 1100 个已经完成，其序列数据已存入公共存储库。GOLD 还在不断扩展，朝着提供与项目及其生物体/环境相关的元数据信息的最全面存储库的目标前进，符合元基因组序列的最低信息要求（MIGS/MIMS）规范。GOLD 可在以下网址获得：http://www.genomesonline.org，并在希腊克里特岛的分子生物学和生物技术研究所设有镜像站点：http://gold.imbb.forth.gr/
