Gramene genome browser

For genomes, the Gramene genome browser allows you to explore plant genome features, functional ontologies, variation data and comparative phylogenomics. For each of the plant reference genomes represented in the genomes section of Gramene you can find:

  • protein-coding and non-coding genes, splice variants, cDNA and protein sequences in the browser’s gene annotation section
  • homologues, gene trees and whole genome alignments across multiple species in the comparative genomics section
  • sequence variants in the variation section

The Gramene genome browser interacts with the Expression Atlas to display expression data from curated expression studies in plants (Figure 4).

Figure 4 Expression data of a rice prolamin gene across different tissues. Prolamins are rice seed storage proteins that accumulate in the endosperm during seed maturation, and serve as a source of carbon and nitrogen. View this page in the Gramene genome browser.
