Plant Databases booth at PAG

Schedule some time to visit Booth #318 at the PAG conference January
13-16, 2008.

Ten plant database projects are working together to provide users
with an opportunity to visit with them to get an introduction or to
ask questions about using the databases. A representative from each
database will be available for a period of time during the opening
reception, and again during the poster sessions. Representatives will
also be available throughout the convention as scheduled (See the
schedule below). For more information visit the booth for the daily
schedule, or contact your favorite databases to schedule a time to
meet with them.

Databases that will be represented include:

MaizeGDB ([Only registered users see links. ]) - the community database for genetic and
genomic information about maize and its close relatives.

Maizesequence.org - ([Only registered users see links. ]) provides sequence and
annotation of the Zea mays ssp. mays genome resulting from the Maize
Genome Sequencing Project.

Gramene ([Only registered users see links. ]) - resource for comparative genome analysis
in plants using model genomes from rice, maize, and Arabidopsis.

TAIR ([Only registered users see links. ] database of genetic and molecular
biology data for the model higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana.

GrainGenes ([Only registered users see links. ]) - a compilation of molecular and
phenotypic information for the Triticeae and Avena species. This
includes wheat, barley, rye, oats, and other closely related species.

SGN ([Only registered users see links. ]) - The SOL Genomics Network is a Clade
Oriented Database (COD) containing genomic, genetic and taxonomic
information for species in the Euasterid clade, including the
families Solanaceae (e.g. tomato, potato, eggplant, pepper, petunia)
and Rubiaceae (coffee).

PLEXdb (Plant Expression Database) ([Only registered users see links. ]) - a unified
public resource for large-scale plant gene expression for comparative
functional genomics.

VPhenoDBS ([Only registered users see links. ]) - a search engine and database for
visually observed phenotypes of Maize mutant and diseases. It
features query by images, query by semantics, and browsing through
ontological structures.

SoyBase ([Only registered users see links. ]) - database of genetic, phenotypic, and
other information about soybean.

LIS ([Only registered users see links. ]) - resource that integrates
genetic and molecular data from multiple legume species and enables
cross-species genomic, transcript and map comparisons.
