It exploits phylogenetic relationships to enrich the annotation of genomic data and provides tools to perform powerful comparative analyses across a wide spectrum of plant species. It consists of an integrated portal for querying, visualizing and analyzing data for 44 plant reference genomes, genetic variation data sets for 12 species, expression data for 16 species, curated rice pathways and orthology-based pathway projections for 66 plant species including various crops. Here we briefly describe the functions and uses of the Gramene database.}, year = {2016}, journal = {Current plant biology}, volume = {7-8}, pages = {10-15}, month = {2016 Nov}, issn = {2214-6628}, doi = {10.1016/j.cpb.2016.12.005}, language = {eng}, }
