  in the sequencing of (eukaryotic) genome which could remain in draft form for a
  long or unspecified period
title: Estimated genome size (Mb)
notes:
- Required for all DNA isolate products (draft genomes, resequencing, methylation)
  per JGI; on the genome interface, not the shared IsolateInterface, so transcriptome
  isolates are not asked for it. Float Mb at the JGI submission gate; nmdc-schema
  stores estimated_size as integer bp.
comments:
- JGI reports values in megabases (Mb); NMDC stores them in base pairs (bp).

    notes:
    - Exact JGI form template is access-restricted; source is the public submission
      overview.
    - 'Per @aclum: Mb is a coarser unit than bp, so a single Mb value covers many
      possible bp values; the alias is broader in granularity.'
