<div>Schedule some time to visit Booth #318 at the PAG conference
January 13-16, 2008.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Ten plant database projects are working together to provide users
with an opportunity to visit with them to get an introduction or to
ask questions about using the databases. A representative from each
database will be available for a period of time during the opening
reception, and again during the poster sessions. Representatives will
also be available throughout the convention as scheduled (See the
schedule below). For more information visit the booth for the daily
schedule, or contact your favorite databases to schedule a time to
meet with them.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Databases that will be represented include:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><b>MaizeGDB</b> (www.maizegdb.org) - the community database for
genetic and genomic information about maize and its close
relatives.</div>
<div><br>
<b>Maizesequence.org</b> - (www.maizesequence.org) provides sequence
and annotation of the Zea mays ssp. mays genome resulting from the
Maize Genome Sequencing Project.</div>
<div><br>
<b>Gramene</b> (www.gramene.org) - resource for comparative genome
analysis in plants using model genomes from rice, maize, and
Arabidopsis.</div>
<div><br>
<b>TAIR</b> (www.arabidopsis.org)- database of genetic and
molecular biology data for the model higher plant<i> Arabidopsis
thaliana</i>.</div>
<div><br>
<b>GrainGenes</b> (www.graingenes.org) - a compilation of molecular
and phenotypic information for the Triticeae and Avena species. This
includes wheat, barley, rye, oats, and other closely related
species.</div>
<div><br>
<b>SGN</b> (www.sgn.cornell.edu) - The SOL Genomics Network is a Clade
Oriented Database (COD) containing genomic, genetic and taxonomic
information for species in the Euasterid clade, including the families
Solanaceae (e.g. tomato, potato, eggplant, pepper, petunia) and
Rubiaceae (coffee).</div>
<div><br>
<b>PLEXdb</b> (Plant Expression Database) (www.plexdb.org) - a
unified public resource for large-scale plant gene expression for
comparative functional genomics.</div>
<div><br>
<b>VPhenoDBS</b> (www.phenomicsworld.org) - a search engine and
database for visually observed phenotypes of Maize mutant and
diseases. It features query by images, query by semantics, and
browsing through ontological structures.</div>
<div><br>
<b>SoyBase</b> (http://soybase.org) - database of genetic, phenotypic,
and other information about soybean.</div>
<div><br>
<b>LIS</b> (http://comparative-legumes.org) - resource that integrates
genetic and molecular data from multiple legume species and enables
cross-species genomic, transcript and map comparisons.</div>
