Shanghai RAPESEED Database -- a resource for functional genomics studies of seed development and fatty acid metabolism of Brassica
What you can do:
Find information on EST, gene expression profiles, and bioresources for the promotion of functional genomics studies and quality breeding of Brassica crops.
Highlights:
- Provides a platform for functional genomics studies of oilseed crops with the emphasis on seed development and fatty acid metabolism.
- Includes the resource of 8462 unique ESTs, of which 3526 clones are with full length cDNA; the expression profiles of 8095 genes and the Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE, 23,895 unique tags) and tag-to-gene data during seed development.
- A total of approximately 14,700 M3 mutant populations were generated by ethylmethanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis and related seed quality information was determined using the Foss NIR System.
- The TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes) platform was established based on the generated EMS mutant population.
- Searcheable through keywords, nucleotide or protein sequences, or seed quality parameters.
