DPVweb -- a comprehensive database of plant and fungal virus genes and genomes
What you can do:
Search for comprehensive information on plant and fungal virus genes and genomes.
Highlights:
- DPVweb provides a central source of information about viruses, viroids and satellites of plants, fungi and protozoa.
- Comprehensive taxonomic information, including brief descriptions of each family and genus, and classified lists of virus sequences are provided.
- The database also holds detailed, curated, information for all sequences of viruses, viroids and satellites of plants, fungi and protozoa that are complete or that contain at least one complete gene (currently, n approximately 9000).
- For comparative purposes, it also contains a single representative sequence of all other fully sequenced virus species with an RNA or single-stranded DNA genome.
- Sequences of features (either as DNA or amino acid sequences) can be directly downloaded from the website in FASTA format. The sequence information can also be accessed via client software for PC computers (freely downloadable from the website) that enable users to make an easy selection of sequences and features of a chosen virus for further analyses.
