The Plant Ontology Consortium is pleased to announce the first release of
gene annotations for Arabidopsis, rice and maize associated to the Plant
Structure Ontology terms. Over 3,000 gene annotations from three
species-specific databases, TAIR, Gramene and MaizeGDB, can now be queried
and retrieved using our ontology browser, the Plant Ontology AmiGO. You
can perform searches using plant ontology terms and gene symbols;
filtering options allow you to retrieve annotations for all or a subset of
species (for details, please see the AmiGO Help document).
We hope the plant research community will benefit from using this
resource. Please fell free to contact us with additional requests for
on-line help with browser and information about the plant ontologies and
annotations (po at plantontology.org).
Best Regards,
Plant Ontology Consortium
