Love this "All protocols, sequence data and analysis codes .. available in OA repositories" Should be 'norm' for research with all linked in the DAS as from Brooke Benz, Eglantina Lopez Echartea & @barneygeddes.bsky.social in @microbiologysociety.org 👏 🌟

Image shows a screenshot of the data availability statement from this Microbiology Society article in which it notes that the protocols, data and code have all been made publicly available in open access repositories with the relevant links provided
