Release #31 of Gramene brought new data sets and features in the Genetic Diversity module. Gramene Diversity now features five large-scale SNP genotype data sets generated by recent re-sequncing projects in rice, maize, and Arabidopsis from the OryzaSNP, Panzea, Arabidopsis 2010 and 1001 Genomes projects. Storage of these several hundred million data points is achieved [...]
We are pleased to announce the 31st release of the Gramene database which includes updates to our genomes, diversity, maps, pathways, and web services. Our genome browser has been updated to Ensembl version 57 and hosts fourteen genomes with new annotations, Fgenesh gene predictions, gene trees, whole genome alignments, and synteny views. The [...]
Co-PI Pankaj Jaiswal and Gramene were profiled in the latest edition of Oregon State University’s Terra magazine.
Two recent papers have cited Gramene. In 2009, Yamamoto et al. acknowledged Gramene’s QTL resources in a paper in DNA Research entitled “Towards the Understanding of Complex Traits in Rice: Substantially or Superficially?”, and in 2010, a paper published in BMC Plant Biology entitled “Transcriptional regulatory network triggered by oxidative signals configures the early [...]
Fine mapping and characterization of the Wheat Ph1 gene, a suppressor of crossing over between homologous chromosomes reported by Sidhu et al. PNAS April 15, 2008 vol. 105 no. 15 5815-5820 extensively used Gramene database for analysis and confirming their results. An excellent example of Gramene database usage and its [...]
Gramene will be present at the Plant and Animal Genome (PAG) conference in San Diego, California, from January 9-14. You can find us at one of our posters (P817, P822, P835, P843, P859), at our computer demonstration, and at a outreach consortium booth we will share with several other plant databases.
In a recent report published in the Transgenic Res. 2009 Sep 22., authors Anand and Tyagi, identified a cDNA for the gene encoding the arabinogalactan protein (AGP) . The cDNA (586bp) isolated from the Oryza sativa indica cDNA library was shown to be expressing preferentially in the inflorescence. The gene is shown to have pollen-specific and [...]
A few years ago Greg Wilson, a student in the McCouch Lab at Cornell University, developed a web-based marker search tool called CHARM which greatly simplifies the search for rice SSR markers in a region of interest. This tool may be of particular utility for rice geneticists and breeders who simply want to retrieve a [...]
The Gramene database project team is happy to announce beta release of the PlantGeneWiki. It is designed as an online community portal on plant genes and their annotations. Our goal for PlantGeneWiki is to generate community curated/annotated pages where the researchers can browse, search, read and manage the content by editing. Yes, the biggest advantage [...]
