PeanutBase

Large-scale genomic data for the peanut have only become available in the last few years, with the advent of low-cost sequencing technologies. To make the data accessible to researchers and to integrate across diverse types of data, the International Peanut Genomics Consortium funded the development of PeanutBase. This database provides access to genetic maps and markers, locations of quantitative trait loci (QTLs), genome sequences, gene locations and sequences, gene families and correspondences with genes in other species, and descriptions of traits and growth characteristics. It also provides tools for exploration and analysis, including sequence of genomic and genic sequences, and keyword searches of genes, gene families, and QTL studies. These resources should facilitate breeding advancements in peanut, helping improve crop productivity and there are a variety of resources for peanut research around the web, ranging from tools for basic plant biology to information for growers and various sectors of the peanut industry to resources for plant breeders.随着低成本测序技术的问世，花生的大规模基因组数据仅在近数年才得以公开。为推动该数据向科研人员开放共享，并实现多类型数据的整合集成，国际花生基因组联盟（International Peanut Genomics Consortium）资助开发了花生数据库（PeanutBase）。该数据库可提供遗传图谱与分子标记、数量性状位点（quantitative trait loci, QTL）的定位信息、全基因组序列、基因位置与编码序列、基因家族信息，以及与其他物种同源基因的对应关系，同时涵盖性状与生长特性的相关描述。此外，该数据库还配备探索与分析工具，包括基因组序列与基因序列的检索功能，以及针对基因、基因家族和QTL研究的关键词检索服务。上述资源将助力花生育种研究的进展，提升作物生产效率；当前全球范围内亦存在丰富的花生研究相关资源，覆盖从基础植物生物学研究工具、面向种植者与花生产业各环节的产业资讯，到服务于植物育种者的各类科研资源等多个领域。
