Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to be able to quickly determine what research article I should reference simply from looking at the output of datasets for a particular genome assembly or BioProject. This publication information is often on the NCBI website, but when I programmatically access the same accession/BioProject, there is no reference to the publication.
For example, on the BioProject page for the common carp, there is a paper to cite: Chang YS et al., "The complete nucleotide sequence and gene organization of carp (Cyprinus carpio) mitochondrial genome.", J Mol Evol, 1994 Feb;38(2):138-55
However, when I query the same BioProject on the command line there is no publication information: datasets summary genome accession PRJNA682709

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if there were a meaningful "publication" field that was the publication that should be cited when that data source is used!

Research direction
Start by running datasets summary genome accession PRJNA682709 and compare its assembly and BioProject metadata with the linked NCBI BioProject page. Determine where publication references can be represented and exposed in the summary output; done means the command includes a meaningful publication field for applicable data sources.
