The Legume Information System (LIS) -- an integrated information resource for comparative legume biology

What you can do:
Search for integrated genetic and molecular data from multiple legume species.
Highlights:
  • LIS is a comparative legume resource that integrates genetic and molecular data from multiple legume species enabling cross-species genomic and transcript comparisons.
  • The LIS virtual plant interface allows simplified and intuitive navigation of transcript data from Medicago truncatula, Lotus japonicus, Glycine max and Arabidopsis thaliana.
  • Transcript libraries are represented as images of plant organs in different developmental stages, which are selected to query the analyzed and annotated data.
  • Complex queries can be accomplished by adding modifiers, keywords and sequence names.
  • The LIS also contains annotated genomic data featuring transcript alignments to validate gene predictions as well as motif and similarity analyses.
  • The genomic browser supports comparative analysis via novel dynamic functional annotation comparisons.
  • CMap has been incorporated to support comparative analyses of community linkage and physical map data.
  • LIS is being expanded to incorporate gene expression and biochemical pathways which will be seamlessly integrated forming a knowledge discovery framework.
