 ## Fetch Species List ##
 
 To get a list of species with data available in GN (and their associated names and ids):
 ```
 curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/species
-[
-  {
-    "FullName": "Mus musculus", 
-    "Id": 1, 
-    "Name": "mouse", 
-    "TaxonomyId": 10090
-  }, 
-  ...
-  {
-    "FullName": "Populus trichocarpa", 
-    "Id": 10, 
-    "Name": "poplar", 
-    "TaxonomyId": 3689
-  }
-]

 ```

 (I added the option to specify species just in case we end up with the same group name across multiple species at some point, though it's currently unnecessary)
 
+## Fetch Individual Dataset Info ##
+### For mRNA Assay/"ProbeSet" ###
 
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/dataset/HC_M2_0606_P

+```
+(This also has the option to specify group/riset)
 
+### For "Phenotypes" (basically non-mRNA Expression; stuff like weight, sex, etc) ###
+For these traits, the query fetches publication info and takes the group and phenotype 'ID' as input. For example:
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/dataset/bxd/10001
+{ "dataset_type": "phenotype", "description": "Central nervous system, morphology: Cerebellum weight, whole, bilateral in adults of both sexes [mg]", "id": 10001, "name": "CBLWT2", "pubmed_id": 11438585, "title": "Genetic control of the mouse cerebellum: identification of quantitative trait loci modulating size and architecture", "year": "2001" }
+```
 
+## Fetch Sample Data for Single Trait ##
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/sample_data/HC_M2_0606_P/1436869_at

+## Fetch Trait Info (Name, Description, Location, etc) ##
+### For mRNA Expression/"ProbeSet" ###
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/trait/HC_M2_0606_P/1436869_at
+{ "additive": -0.214087568058076, "alias": "HHG1; HLP3; HPE3; SMMCI; Dsh; Hhg1", "chr": "5", "description": "sonic hedgehog (hedgehog)", "id": 99602, "locus": "rs8253327", "lrs": 12.7711275309832, "mb": 28.457155, "mean": 9.27909090909091, "name": "1436869_at", "p_value": 0.306, "se": null, "symbol": "Shh" }
+```
+
+### For "Phenotypes" ###
+For phenotypes this just gets the  max LRS, its location, and additive effect (as calculated by qtlreaper)
+
+Since each group/riset only has one phenotype "dataset", this query takes either the group/riset name or the group/riset name + "Publish" (for example "BXDPublish", which is the dataset name in the DB) as input
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/trait/BXD/10001

+
+## Calculate Correlation ##
+Currently only Pearson Sample and Tissue correlations are implemented
+
+This query currently takes the following parameters (though more will be added):
+* trait_id (*required*) - ID for trait used for correlation
+* db (*required*) - DB name for the trait above (this is the Short_Abbreviation listed when you query for datasets)
+* target_db (*required*) - Target DB name to be correlated against
+* type - Sample or Tissue (default = Sample)
+* return - Number of results to return (default = 500)
+
+Example query:
+```
+curl http://gn2-zach.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/correlation?trait_id=1427571_at&db=HC_M2_0606_P&target_db=BXDPublish&type=sample&return_count=100
