Maize, an essential crop with significant agricultural importance, has been the subject of extensive research, resulting in a wealth of genomic and phenotypic data. The recent release of the genome assemblies and annotations for the 26 maize NAM inbred lines have enabled large-scale pan-genomic comparative studies. Our study provides a comprehensive predicted pan-interactome resource and offers a means to predict putative protein functions and prioritize gene candidates through the analysis of annotated interactome clusters.

玉米是农业领域具有重要战略地位的核心作物，长期以来受到学界广泛研究，积累了海量基因组与表型组数据。近期，26个玉米NAM（Nested Association Mapping）自交系的基因组组装及注释数据正式发布，为大规模泛基因组比较研究提供了可行支撑。本研究构建了一套完整的预测型泛互作组资源，可通过分析注释后的互作组聚类结果，实现推定蛋白质功能的预测，并完成候选基因的优先级排序。
