Tips
To download entire genome records, check the GSA FTP site, instead of using Batch Entrez.
Some lists of record identifiers can be tens
of thousands of lines long, so Batch Entrez may not retrieve
all records from one list. Split the list of identifiers
into smaller files using a file splitting software or a file
split command at the command prompt in UNIX or LINUX
systems.
When loading large numbers of genome records, put several thousand record identifiers per file,
one per line, left-adjusted.
Please note that Batch Entrez will check for duplicate
identifiers when reporting results from a list that you have
imported.
