SoyBase -- USDA-ARS soybean genetics and genomics database
URL:
What you can do:
Find genetic information about soybeans.
Highlights:
- SoyBase is a comprehensive repository for professionally curated genetics, genomics and related data resources for soybean.
- SoyBase contains genetic, physical and genomic sequence maps integrated with qualitative and quantitative traits.
- The quantitative trait loci (QTL) represent more than 18 years of QTL mapping of more than 90 unique traits.
- It also contains the well-annotated 'Williams 82' genomic sequence and associated data mining tools.
- The genetic and sequence views of the soybean chromosomes and the extensive data on traits and phenotypes are extensively interlinked.
- This allows entry to the database using almost any kind of available information, such as genetic map symbols, soybean gene names or phenotypic traits.
- SoyBase is the repository for controlled vocabularies for soybean growth, development and trait terms, which are also linked to the more general plant ontologies.
