This volume introduces databases containing the results from the recent revolution in sequencing technologies. Chapters inPlant Genomics Databases: Methods and Protocolsdescribe database content, as well as typical use-cases. Some chapters explore databases that primarily present genome sequences focusing on one or a few related species, while others include additional datatypes and/or data from various plant species. Written in the highly successfulMethods in Molecular Biologyseries format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Cutting-edge and comprehensive,Plant Genomics Databases: Methods and Protocolsis a valuable resource for providing clear guidance in accessing an important collection of plant databases that can be used to add biological value to genomic data.
