EURoot Barley

The data come from the EURoot DB Information System (IS)(http://euroot.cirad.fr/euroot/JSP/index.jsp). EURoot DB is the database of the EURoot project "Enhancing resource uptake from roots under stress in cereal crops". It manages information on QTLs, genes and mutants involved in root growth under stress (drought, low N or low P) in barley, durum wheat, maize and rice. This project funded by the European Comission and coordinated by CIRAD began on 1 January 2012 and ended on 31 December 2015. It was the topic KBBE.2011.1.2-05 - Root signalling, growth and development under abiotic stress conditions of the FP7-KBBE - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology. 19 Participants from various jeuropean countries were involved in this project. The IS has a database per plant and the files of this dataset were extracted from the EURoot BARLEY database in tabulated text format. There is a file for each type of data which name includes the data type. Each line of a file has several columns describing the study (title, description, year, country, place, contact). Genes can be found in the EUROOT_barley_markers‧txt file. All publications concerning this dataset are recorded in the EUROOT_barley_references‧txt file.
