************************************************** ***************
Gramene([Only registered users see links. ]) is a curated, open-source, web-accessible
data resource for comparative genome analysis in the grasses. Our
goal is to facilitate the study of cross-species homology
relationships using information derived from public projects involved
in genomic and EST sequencing, protein structure and function
analysis, genetic and physical mapping, interpretation of biochemical
pathways, gene and QTL localization and descriptions of phenotypic
characters and mutations.

************************************************** ***************
This work is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the
USDA-Agricultural Research Service, and was previously funded by the USDA
Initiative for Future Agriculture and Food Systems (IFAFS). We are thankful
to numerous collaborators and contributors for help in curation and for
sharing their datasets and tools.
