Curated, open-source, integrated data resource for comparative functional genomics in crops and model plant species to facilitate the study of cross-species comparisons using information generated from projects supported by public funds. It currently hosts annotated whole genomes in over two dozen plant species and partial assemblies for almost a dozen wild rice species in the Ensembl browser, genetic and physical maps with genes, ESTs and QTLs locations, genetic diversity data sets, structure-function analysis of proteins, plant pathways databases (BioCyc and Plant Reactome platforms), and descriptions of phenotypic traits and mutations. The web-based displays for phenotypes include the Genes and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) modules. Sequence based relationships are displayed in the Genomes module using the genome browser adapted from Ensembl, in the Maps module using the comparative map viewer (CMap) from GMOD, and in the Proteins module displays. BLAST is used to search for similar sequences. Literature supporting all the above data is organized in the Literature database. In addition, Gramene now hosts a variety of web services including a Distributed Annotation Server (DAS), BLAST and a public MySQL database. Twice a year, Gramene releases a major build of the database and makes interim releases to correct errors or to make important updates to software and/or data. Additionally you can access Gramene through an FTP site.

Database of biological collections in natural history museums, herbaria, and other biorepositories resulting from a merger of Index Herbariorum (IH), Biodiversity Collections Index (BCI) and biorepositories.org. It contains more than 14,000 records for biorepository institutions, their collections, and staff members. Their two main goals are to improve access to information about biorepositories, the collections and specimens they house, and the researchers and collection managers who work there; and to facilitate electronic linkages to this information through web services that will rely on unique identifiers assigned to biorepositories and collections. The Consortium for the Barcode of Life (CBOL) has developed and will manage GRBio in collaboration with IH and BCI and in consultation with GBIF and NCBI. GRBio includes four categories of data records that provide information on: * Institutional repositories such as museums, herbaria, botanical gardens, zoos, biomedical research institutes and culture centers; * Institutional collection records such as the bird, algal or insect collections within an institutional repository; * Personal collections such as field samples held by a researcher before they have been accessioned into an institutional collection, or privately owned specimens held by non-researchers; and * Staff members at institutional repositories GRBio operates as a moderated community-curated resource. The community is invited to check and update their records and to register institutions, collections and staff members that have not already been registered. GRBio offers registration of institutional collections, "personal" research collections that have not yet been accessioned into an institutional repository, and privately owned collections.

https://www.genevestigator.com/gv/
A high performance search engine for gene expression that integrates thousands of manually curated public microarray and RNAseq experiments and nicely visualizes gene expression across different biological contexts (diseases, drugs, tissues, cancers, genotypes, etc.). There are two basic analysis approaches: # for a gene of interest, identify which conditions affect its expression. # for condition(s) of interest, identify which genes are specifically expressed in this/these conditions. Genevestigator builds on the deep integration of data, both at the level of data normalization and on the level of sample annotations. This deep integration allows scientists to ask new types of questions that cannot be addressed using conventional tools.

Annotated, non-redundant database of proximal promoter sequences for RNA polymerase II with experimentally determined transcription start site(s) (TSS) from various plant species. It contains 578 unrelated entries including 151, 396 and 31 promoters with experimentally verified TSS from monocot, dicot and other plants, respectively (April 2014). This DB presents the published promoter sequences with TSS(s) determined by direct experimental approaches and therefore serves as the most accurate source for development of computational promoter prediction tools.

An open web-accessible resource for gene functional annotations in the plant sciences to facilitate improvement, consolidation and visualization of gene annotations across several plant species. It is based on the MapMan ontology, organized in the form of a hierarchical tree of biological concepts, which describe gene functions. Currently, genes of the model species Arabidopsis, potato, tomato, rice, and tobacco are included. The main features are (i) dynamic and interactive gene product annotation through various curation options; (ii) consolidation of gene annotations for different plant species through the integration of orthologue group information; (iii) traceability of gene ontology changes and annotations; (iv) integration of external knowledge about genes from different public resources; and (v) providing gathered information to high-throughput analysis tools via dynamically generated export files. All of the GoMapMan functionalities are openly available, with the restriction on the curation functions, which require prior registration to ensure traceability of the implemented changes.
