Germinate Database Platform (http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/germinate)

Germinate is a generic plant data management platform implemented in MySQL and is designed to act as a scaffolding on which complex web-based applications can be developed to leverage information from experimentally derived data. Germinate currently handles phenotypic, genotypic and passport data. The system offers users with a standard set of interfaces for interrogation, browsing and displaying of a number of data types and can be easily expanded to add custom functionality depending on the application being developed. It is hoped that Germinate can grow into a stable set of tools on which diverse datasets can be seamlessly integrated using the common platform making interrogation of data from disparate or diverse datasets simpler.

AtNoPDB (http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/cgi-bin/atnopdb/home)

The Arabidopsis Nucleolar Protein database provides information on plant proteins in comparison to human and yeast proteins and images of cellular localisations for over a third of these proteins. This data was derived from a proteomic analysis of nucleoli purified from Arabidopsis cell cultures.

Barley SNP Database (http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/barley_snpdb)

The Barley SNP Database contains information on SNP polymorphisms from genes associated with abiotic stress in eight cultivars of barley. This online resource offers the user various visualizations that show these polymorphisms within the context of the aligned genes from the eight cultivars, as well as primers used to map these polymorphic markers and background about the gene sequences. This detailed dataset was the result of a SNP discovery pipeline which uses phred, phrap, consed and polyphred to discover, view and annotate polymorphic sites.

ProtLocDB (http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ProtLocDB/home)

ProtLocDB is a protein localisation database that contains sequence information, BLAST results and the subcellular localisations of numerous partial plant cDNA-GFP fusions expressed from a Tobacco Mosaic Virus vector. Images can be searched by localization within the cell, by AGI number or by sequence descriptions.

This resource is no longer available for further information please contact Sean Chapman (sean.chapman@scri.ac.uk) or Alison Roberts (alison.roberts@scri.ac.uk).

Plant snoRNA Database (http://bioinf.scri.sari.ac.uk/cgi-bin/plant_snorna/home)

The plant snoRNA Database and web-site brings together information from three independent computer-assisted searches of the Arabidopsis genome for box C/D snoRNA genes and from studies of ncRNAs. To date, the Arabidopsis box C/D snoRNAs have been used to identify approximately 250 genes from different non-Arabidopsis plant species and these sequences are included as alignments in the Database. The Database also provides a unifying nomenclature for all of the plant snoRNA genes.

Wheat In Situ Database (http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/cgi-bin/insitu/home)

This resource was developed wth the John Innes Centre and Syngenta and provides a gateway to the information obtained from a high-throughput wheat in situ hybridization project funded by BBSRC and Syngenta. mRNA in situ hybridisation was used to determine the spatial expression pattern of genes expressed in the developing wheat caryopsis.
