However, the annotation of these assemblies - a crucial step towards unlocking the biology of the organism of interest - has remained a complex challenge that often requires advanced bioinformatics expertise. Here we present MOSGA, a genome annotation framework for eukaryotic genomes with a user-friendly web-interface that generates and integrates annotations from various tools. The aggregated results can be analyzed with a fully integrated genome browser and are provided in a format ready for submission to NCBI. MOSGA is built on a portable, customizable, and easily extendible Snakemake backend, and thus, can be tailored to a wide range of users and projects. We provide MOSGA as a publicly free available web service at https://mosga.mathematik.uni-marburg.de and as a docker container at registry.gitlab.com/mosga/mosga:latest.
