PlantGenIE

The Plant Genome Integrative Explorer is a collection of interoperable web resources for searching, visualizing and analyzing genomics and transcriptomics data for different plant species. Currently it includes dedicated web portals for enabling in-depth exploration of poplar, Norway spruce, and Arabidopsis. The PlantGenIE platform uses Chado databases and is based on the GenIE CMS (Content Management System). Standard features of a model organism database are provided, including genome browsers, gene list annotation, Blast homology searches and gene information pages. Community annotation updating is supported via integration of WebApollo. PlantGenIE includes RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) expression atlas for Populus tremula and have integrated these data within the expression tools. An updated version of the ComPlEx resource for performing comparative plant expression analyses of gene coexpression network conservation between species has also been integrated.
