Abstract :

Since the publication of the first entire genome sequence seven years ago [1], a multitude of other genomes have been - or are in the process of being - sequenced [2]. By the end of 2002, we witnessed the landmark submission of the 100th complete genome sequence in the databases [3]. There are now 106 complete genomes in the public domain, thanks to advances in sequencing technology and sustained funding. An overview, and in particular the rank ordering, of these genomes reveals certain interesting trends and provides valuable insights into possible future developments.
