Abstract:

The National Agriculture Library (NAL) maintains a set of databases related to plant, animal, and insect genomes. All genome database categories can be searched together, or the following individual database categories can be searched or browsed separately:
        • Plant Genome - AAtDB (Arabidopsis), Alfagenes (alfalfa (Medicago sativa)), BeanGenes (Phaseolus and Vigna), CabbagePatch (12/04/97) (Brassica), ChlamyDB (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii), CoolGenes (cool season food legumes), CottonDB (Gossypium hirsutum), GrainGenes (wheat, barley, rye and relatives), MaizeDB (maize), MilletGenes (pearl millet), PathoGenes (fungal pathogens of small-grain cereals), RiceGenes (rice), RoseDB (Rosaceae), SolGenes (Solanaceae), SorghumDB (Sorghum bicolor), SoyBase (soybeans), TreeGenes (forest trees), Mendel (plant-wide gene names)
        • Livestock Animal Genome - BovGBASE (Bovine), ChickGBASE (poultry), PiGBASE (swine), SheepBASE (sheep), OMIA (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Animals)
        • Other Organisms Genome - ACeDB (C. elegans), DictyDB (The soil amoebae Dictyostelium discoideum), MycDB (Mycobacteria), PathoGenes (fungal pathogens of small-grain cereals)
        • Plant Reference - AGRICOLA (plant genetics subset), CIMMYT (Wheat International Nursery Data), Ecosys (plant ecological ranges), EthnobotDB (worldwide plant uses), FoodplantDB (Native American food plants), MPNADB (medicinal plants of Native America), PhytochemDB (plant chemicals), PVP (Plant Variety Protection (last compiled on 02/08/98)), PVPSoy (Soybean Plant Variety Protection Data)
        • Insect Reference - Fire ant, Face Fly, Horn Fly, Screwworm, Stable Fly

          How To Access The Data

          These free online databases can be searched (query) or browsed free of charge at the NAL genome database web page listed below. Searching can be done in a variety of ways, such as using a fuzzy search, WAIS search, ACEDB Query by Example, or others.
