Figure 1.
The presence or absence of six objects of Sequence Read Archive (SRA) metadata for each submission (top 15).
The experimental designs including project titles, sequencing platforms and sample species are archived in SRA along with raw sequence data as six types of XML files: submission, study, experiment, run, sample and analysis. Analysis files are optional for submission. Each submission has not all those objects of metadata.

Figure 2.
The growth of SRA data categorized by project types, and sequencing platforms.
(A) The growth of the number of SRA studies categorized by project types. The number of studies are double that of the previous year. (B) The growth of the number of SRA experiments categorized by sequencing platforms. Over 200,000 experiments are submitted under approximately 14,000 studies. The experiments using Illumina HiSeq 2000 are dramatically increasing.
