Abstract: | As an emerging model system, rice will benefit from an informatics infrastructure which organizes genome data and makes it available worldwide. RiceGenes and other Internet-accessible resources are evolving to meet these goals. Grass crops such as rice, maize, millet, sorghum and wheat are closely related but are represented by independent database projects; interlinking these resources would create a broad view of grass genetics and make it easier to compare data across genomes. The future success of grass informatics depends on the development of new comparative mapping displays as well as the participation of the research community in assembling and curating comparative map data. |
