Why not the genomes of organisms used in/for medical experiments? This
way, there can be an even tighter link between medical research and
genomics. Also, the genomes of organisms used for food or any human
use, such as trees used for lumber. This might have manufacturing
applications. (I'm talking about the ones that haven't been done yet.)

My one cent!
