This is a continuation to my previous question. I am working with this study given in the answer to the question. I realized that I can look up the reference genome of many strains in the "Assembly" section of the ENA search results but I cannot figure out to which specific strains of S. pneumoniae the FASTQ files for each run belong to. I am assuming that each of these is a run:
To summarize the previous question, I am looking for two strains of S. pneumoniae for which I can obtain their raw sequencing data in FASTQ format along with being able to find their reference genomes in FASTA format.
I tried looking at the descriptions on the FASTQ files but I cannot understand them. They are different from the ones that I have seen before. If it is of any help, here are the first lines of File 1 as shown in the picture above:

I see, I tried the link before and I just assumed that the site was broken since it did not work for Firefox in my version of Ubuntu nor for Chromium. It worked on Firefox on Windows but I had to ask a script on the site to stop running before I could navigate. I thought I was missing something obvious since the original study was given to me by a user as a response to the previous question and I thought that the link in it was broken. Now I can see the table that lists the strains.
Edit: The link still does not seem to work. I don't how it worked once on Windows.
I solved it. One has to delete the cookies for the site and then open it again. Apparently there is a buggy script running on the site.
It tried to freeze firefox on my Mac too.
