Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The Gramene resource is an integrated comparative genomics platform that has been extended to include multiple pan-genome sites focused on rice, maize, sorghum, and grapevine. Researchers focused on a particular crop now have access to genome browsers for multiple assembled genomes, protein coding gene trees, and pairwise genome alignments and synteny maps. Each of the sites includes a community reference genome from rice, maize, sorghum and grapevine as well as from outgroups; poplar, arabidopsis, selaginella and chlamydomonas. These community reference genomes provide functional annotation that can be projected via orthology to the crop species of interest. In total, Gramene hosts 125 plant reference genomes, pan- genomes from 28 rice, 26 maize, 28 sorghum, and 18 grapevine genomes, nearly 1000 gene expression datasets from EBI Expression Atlas, and Plant Reactome pathways from 120 species. Pathway Browsers allow users to upload, analyze, and visualize their own omics data. The CLIMtools portal provides interactive views of environment x genome associations, RiboSNitch predictions, and correlations between the environment and curated phenotypes for Arabidopsis. Gramene supports open access and reproducible science, based on the FAIR data principles, and encourages researchers to contact them for data hosting and sharing.
