Phytophthora functional genomics database (PFGD) -- functional genomics of phytophthorax96plant interactions

What you can do:
Search for molecular biological information for Phytophthorax96plant interaction research.
Highlights:
  • PFGD contains transcript, genomic, gene expression and functional assay data for Phytophthora infestans, which causes late blight of potato, and Phytophthora sojae, which affects soybeans.
  • Using PFGD, the objective is to characterize effector genes and proteins with regards to primary sequence, gene expression, biological activity, cellular responses and cellular localization during infection.
  • Automated analyses are performed on all sequence data, including consensus sequences derived from clustered and assembled expressed sequence tags.
  • The PFGD search filter interface allows intuitive navigation of transcript and genomic data organized by library and derived queries using modifiers, annotation keywords or sequence names.
  • BLAST services are provided for libraries built from the transcript and genomic sequences.
  • Transcript data visualization tools include Quality Screening, Multiple Sequence Alignment and Features and Annotations viewers.
  • A genomic browser that supports comparative analysis via novel dynamic functional annotation comparisons is also provided.
