Download only representative assembly version using ncbi-genome-download

[KinSimon96]

Hello,

using ncbi-genome-download --formats fasta,assembly-report bacteria --genera "Bacillus anthracis", it downloads all assembly versions available, which is not required for my purpose.

Here, you can see the "representative" section, including only 1 version. Is there a way to download this one using ncbi-genome-download ?

Thanks,
Simon

I realise this isn't super clear from the --help output, but you should be able to use --refseq-categories representative for this.
