Abstract Gramene (http://www.gramene.org/) is a comparative genome database for cereal
crops and a community resource for rice. We are populating and curating Gramene
with annotated rice (Oryza sativa) genomic sequence data and associated
biological information including molecular markers, mutants, phenotypes,
polymorphisms and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL). In order to support queries
across various data sets as well as across external databases, Gramene will
employ three related controlled vocabularies. The specific goal of Gramene is,
first to provide a Trait Ontology (TO) that can be used across the cereal crops
to facilitate phenotypic comparisons both within and between the genera. Second,
a vocabulary for plant anatomy terms, the Plant Ontology (PO) will facilitate
the curation of morphological and anatomical feature information with respect to
expression, localization of genes and gene products and the affected plant parts
in a phenotype. The TO and PO are both in the early stages of development in
collaboration with the International Rice Research Institute, TAIR and MaizeDB
as part of the Plant Ontology Consortium. Finally, as part of another consortium
comprising macromolecular databases from other model organisms, the Gene
Ontology Consortium, we are annotating the confirmed and predicted protein
entries from rice using both electronic and manual curation. Copyright © 2002
