(When aggregating by species to create a matrix comprised of samples from different experiments, genes that are not present in all samples [are dropped](#why-do-i-get-a-limited-number-of-genes-back-when-i-aggregate-samples-from-different-experiments).)
When this occurs, it is because the experiments were quantified with Salmon transcriptome indices using different Ensembl releases of the same genome build.

#### How can I find out what genome build and release were used to process RNA-seq data?

Genome build and Ensembl release version information is available on the pop-up displayed when you click a sample's processing information link in the sample table on the page for an experiment.

The same information is available via our API.
For the sample shown above, we could access the information with:

```
https://api.refine.bio/v1/samples/?accession_codes=ERR2534073
```

#### How can I find out what versions of software/packages were used to process the data?

Version information for the packages we think are _most important_ for data processing is available on the pop-up displayed when you click a sample's processing information link.
