GrainGenes, a Database for Triticeae and Avena

The GrainGenes website hosts a wealth of information for researchers working on Triticeae species, oat and their wild relatives. The website hosts a database encompassing information such as genetic maps, genes, alleles, genetic markers, phenotypic data, quantitative trait loci studies, experimental protocols and publications. The database can be queried by text searches, browsing, Boolean queries, MySQL commands, or by using pre-made queries created by the curators. GrainGenes is not solely a database, but serves as an informative site for researchers and a means to communicate project aims, outcomes and a forum for discussion.谷物基因数据库（GrainGenes）网站面向从事小麦族（Triticeae）物种、燕麦及其野生近缘种研究的科研人员，提供了海量专业研究资料。该网站搭载的数据库涵盖遗传图谱、基因、等位基因、遗传标记、表型数据、数量性状位点（quantitative trait loci）研究、实验方案及学术文献等内容。该数据库支持文本检索、浏览、布尔检索、MySQL命令查询，亦可通过数据库策展人预设的查询模板进行检索。GrainGenes不仅是单一的专业数据库，同时也是服务于科研人员的信息共享平台，可用于发布研究项目的目标与成果，并设有学术讨论论坛。
