<p>Welcome to the <strong>GeneNetwork Data Quality Control and Upload System</strong>. This system is provided to help in uploading your data onto GeneNetwork where you can do analysis on it.</p>
- <p>Click on the menu items on the left to select the kind of data you want to upload.</p>
+ <p>The sections below provide an overview of what features the menu items on
+ the left provide to you. Please peruse the information to get a good
+ big-picture understanding of what the system provides you and how to get
+ the most out of it.</p>
{%block extrapageinfo%}{%endblock%}
+
+ <h2>Species</h2>
+
+ <p>The GeneNetwork service provides datasets and tools for doing genetic
+ studies &mdash; from
+ <a href="{{gn2server_intro}}"
+ target="_blank"
+ title="GeneNetwork introduction — opens in a new tab.">
+ its introduction</a>:
+
+ <blockquote class="blockquote">
+ <p>GeneNetwork is a group of linked data sets and tools used to study
+ complex networks of genes, molecules, and higher order gene function
+ and phenotypes. &hellip;</p>
+ </blockquote>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>With this in mind, it follows that the data in the system is centered
+ aroud a variety of species. The <strong>species section</strong> will
+ list the currently available species in the system, and give you the
+ ability to add new ones, if the one you want to work on does not currently
+ exist on GeneNetwork</p>
+
+ <h2>Populations</h2>
+
+ <p>Your studies will probably focus on a particular subset of the entire
+ species you are interested in &ndash; your population.</p>
+ <p>Populations are a way to organise the species data so as to link data to
+ specific know populations for a particular species, e.g. The BXD
+ population of mice (Mus musculus)</p>
+ <p>In older GeneNetwork documentation, you might run into the term
+ <em>InbredSet</em>. Should you run into it, it is a term that we've
+ deprecated that essentially just means the population.</p>
+
+ <h2>Samples</h2>
+
+ <p>These are the samples or individuals (sometimes cases) that were involved
+ in the experiment, and from whom the data was derived.</p>
+
+ <h2>Genotype Data</h2>
+
+ <p>This section will allow you to view and upload the genetic markers for
+ your species, and the genotype encodings used for your particular
+ population.</p>
+ <p>While, technically, genetic markers relate to the species in general, and
+ not to a particular population, the data (allele information) itself
+ relates to the particular population it was generated from &ndash;
+ specifically, to the actual individuals used in the experiment.</p>
+ <p>This is the reason why the genotype data information comes under the
+ population, and will check for the prior existence of the related
+ samples/individuals before attempting an upload of your data.</p>
