When is the best time to submit my sequences to GenBank?
Records submitted through BOLD to GenBank will remain private on GenBank for one year to allow time for submitters to publish their findings before the records are publicly accessible. BOLD recommends all users submit their sequences to GenBank while preparing their manuscript for publication. Once the manuscript is published, users are encouraged to make their data publicly available in BOLD. This can be accomplished by visiting the Modify Project Properties page in the Project Console.
