June 2016 Gramene Webinar: Tomato genomic resources and pathways

The Gramene database has the pleasure to invite you to a FREE 30-min webinar focused on tomato, an economically important crop of the family Solanaceae with a focus on the plant pathways. Plant Reactome (http://plantreactome.gramene.org), the pathway database of Gramene is a freely available online resource of plant metabolic, signaling, and regulatory pathways. It features rice as the reference species and curated rice pathways are used for gene homology-based pathway projections from 62 other plant species including Arabidopsis, maize, grape, strawberry, tomato, etc. Plant Reactome uses a eukaryotic cell model for pathway visualization and allows uploading and analysis of omics data.

Dr. Sushma Naithani, an Assistant Professor (Senior Research) at Oregon State University, will briefly review tomato data and resources available in Gramene and then demonstrate step by step i) how users can navigate the Plant Reactome database, ii) compare pathways between reference and projected species tomato, and iii) how to upload and visualize transcriptome data on pathway diagrams, and extract relevant information.

If you have a specific question or case example that you would like us to address / include during this exercise, please contact us at webinar@gramene.org.

We are looking forward to hearing from you! Join us online on Tuesday, June 28th, 2016 at 2:00 pm- 2:30 pm EDT.
