What you can do:

Search for comprehensive genomic information of soybean.

Highlights:

The Soybean Genome Database (SoyGD) genome browser has integrated and served the publicly available soybean physical map, bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) fingerprint database and genetic map associated genomic data.
The browser shows both build 3 and build 4 contiguous sets of clones (contigs) of the soybean physical map.
Build 4 consisted of 2854 contigs that encompassed 1.05 Gb and 404 high-quality DNA markers that anchored 742 contigs. Many DNA markers anchored sets of 2-8 different contigs. Each contig in the set represented a homologous region of related sequences.
GBrowse was adapted to show sets of homologous contigs at all potential anchor points, spread laterally and prevented from overlapping.
About 8064 minimum tiling path (MTP2) clones provided 13,473 BAC end sequences (BES) to decorate the physical map.
Analyses of BES placed 2111 gene models, 40 marker anchors and 1053 new microsatellite markers on the map.
Estimated sequence tag probes from 201 low-copy gene families located 613 paralogs.
The genome browser portal showed each data type as a separate track. Tetraploid, octoploid, diploid and homologous regions are shown clearly in relation to an integrated genetic and physical map.
