THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 26, 2019. Database of leaf senescence to collect SAGs, mutants, phenotypes and literature references. Leaf senescence has been recognized as the last phase of plant development, a highly ordered process regulated by genes called SAGs. By integrating the data from mutant studies and transgenic analysis, they collected many SAGs related to regulation of the leaf senescence in various species. Additionally, they have categorized SAGs according to their functions in regulation of leaf senescence and used standard criteria to describe senescence associated phenotypes for mutants. Users are welcome to submit the new SAGs.

Natural Antisense Transcripts (NATs), a kind of regulatory RNAs, occur prevalently in plant genomes and play significant roles in physiological and/or pathological processes. PlantNATsDB (Plant Natural Antisense Transcripts DataBase) is a platform for annotating and discovering NATs by integrating various data sources involving approximately 2 million NAT pairs in 69 plant species. PlantNATsDB also provides an integrative, interactive and information-rich web graphical interface to display multidimensional data, and facilitate plant research community and the discovery of functional NATs. GO annotation and high-throughput small RNA sequencing data currently available were integrated to investigate the biological function of NATs. A ''''Gene Set Analysis'''' module based on GO annotation was designed to dig out the statistical significantly overrepresented GO categories from the specific NAT network. PlantNATsDB is currently the most comprehensive resource of NATs in the plant kingdom, which can serve as a reference database to investigate the regulatory function of NATs.

http://podb.nibb.ac.jp/Organellome/PODBworld/en/

Images and movies of plant organelle dynamics that were obtained from plant research, based on the Plant Organelles Database. This educational tool is written in layman''''s terms to engage members of the non-scientific community such as students and school teachers. Additional content: ''''What happens, if organelle functions become defective '''' was added in anticipation that readers will be interested in this subject. The Scientific Research of Priority Areas on Organelle Differentiation as the Strategy for Environmental Adaptation in Plants was started on 2004 to promote a comprehensive understanding of plant organelle research, and research with plant scientists all over Japan has been conducted for the past five years. The Plant Organelles Database (PODB), which contains images and movies of various plant organelles that were obtained from this project''''s research was constructed but was designed for scientists. ''''The Plant Organelles World'''' was created for the non-scientific community to understand. Plants have developed mechanisms to adapt to the environment, which is different from the mammalian system of adaption. From recent plant research, the small compartments in cells, ''''organelles'''', have been shown to be involved in various responses to environmental changes. The dramatic development of bio-imaging analysis tools such as green fluorescent protein (GFP), which won a Nobel prize for chemistry in 2008, has contributed to recent plant science, because it has become easier to biotechnologically introduce GFP and its derivatives into cells, leading to convenient methods of observing the inside of cells. As a result, we can analyze organelle dynamics and obtain insights related to understanding the way plants live, as well as forming a deeper understanding of organelles.

http://ahd.cbi.pku.edu.cn

Database providing a systematic and comprehensive view of morphological phenotypes regulated by plant hormones, as well as regulatory genes participating in numerous plant hormone responses. By integrating the data from mutant studies, transgenic analysis and gene ontology annotation, genes related to the stimulus of eight plant hormones were identified, including abscisic acid, auxin, brassinosteroid, cytokinin, ethylene, gibberellin, jasmonic acid and salicylic acid. Another pronounced characteristics of this database is that a phenotype ontology was developed to precisely describe all kinds of morphological processes regulated by plant hormones with standardized vocabularies. To increase the coverage of phytohormone related genes, the database has been updated from AHD to AHD2.0 adding and integrating several pronounced features: (1) added 291 newly published Arabidopsis hormone related genes as well as corrected information (e.g. the arguable ABA receptors) based on the recent 2-year literature; (2) integrated orthologues of sequenced plants in OrthoMCLDB into each gene in the database; (3) integrated predicted miRNA splicing site in each gene in the database; (4) provided genetic relationship of these phytohormone related genes mining from literature, which represents the first effort to construct a relatively comprehensive and complex network of hormone related genes as shown in the home page of our database; (5) In convenience to in-time bioinformatics analysis, they also provided links to a powerful online analysis platform Weblab that they have recently developed, which will allow users to readily perform various sequence analysis with these phytohormone related genes retrieved from AHD2.0; (6) provided links to other protein databases as well as more expression profiling information that would facilitate users for a more systematic analysis related to phytohormone research. Please help to improve the database with your contributions.

http://grbio.org/

Database of biological collections in natural history museums, herbaria, and other biorepositories resulting from a merger of Index Herbariorum (IH), Biodiversity Collections Index (BCI) and biorepositories.org. It contains more than 14,000 records for biorepository institutions, their collections, and staff members. Their two main goals are to improve access to information about biorepositories, the collections and specimens they house, and the researchers and collection managers who work there; and to facilitate electronic linkages to this information through web services that will rely on unique identifiers assigned to biorepositories and collections. The Consortium for the Barcode of Life (CBOL) has developed and will manage GRBio in collaboration with IH and BCI and in consultation with GBIF and NCBI. GRBio includes four categories of data records that provide information on: * Institutional repositories such as museums, herbaria, botanical gardens, zoos, biomedical research institutes and culture centers; * Institutional collection records such as the bird, algal or insect collections within an institutional repository; * Personal collections such as field samples held by a researcher before they have been accessioned into an institutional collection, or privately owned specimens held by non-researchers; and * Staff members at institutional repositories GRBio operates as a moderated community-curated resource. The community is invited to check and update their records and to register institutions, collections and staff members that have not already been registered. GRBio offers registration of institutional collections, "personal" research collections that have not yet been accessioned into an institutional repository, and privately owned collections.

https://www.genevestigator.com/gv/

A high performance search engine for gene expression that integrates thousands of manually curated public microarray and RNAseq experiments and nicely visualizes gene expression across different biological contexts (diseases, drugs, tissues, cancers, genotypes, etc.). There are two basic analysis approaches: # for a gene of interest, identify which conditions affect its expression. # for condition(s) of interest, identify which genes are specifically expressed in this/these conditions. Genevestigator builds on the deep integration of data, both at the level of data normalization and on the level of sample annotations. This deep integration allows scientists to ask new types of questions that cannot be addressed using conventional tools.
