Gramene at Plant & Animal Genome 2020

The Plant and Animal Genome (PAG) XXVIII conference will kick off this coming Saturday, January 11th, 2020, in San Diego, CA.  Come meet Gramene staff and get the latest updates to Gramene’s comparative genomics and pathways visualization and mining tools to aid your research on plant models and crops!  At PAG 2020, we will be announcing Gramene's public release #62 containing updates to its Genome section, Pathway portal Plant Reactome, and infrastructure. The genome portal hosts 67 plant genomes with six new species and the Plant Reactome hosts pathways for 97 species.

Meet with Gramene staff -Sushma Naithani, Pankaj Jaiswal and Doreen Ware- at PAG to explore how Gramene can help in your research.
