The Plant Genome DataBase Japan (PGDBj, http://pgdbj.jp/?ln=en) is a portal website that aims to integrate plant genome-related information from databases (DBs) and the literature. The PGDBj is comprised of three component DBs and a cross-search engine, which provides a seamless search over the contents of the DBs. The three DBs are as follows. (i) The Ortholog DB, providing gene cluster information based on the amino acid sequence similarity. Over 500,000 amino acid sequences of 20 Viridiplantae species were subjected to reciprocal BLAST searches and clustered. Sequences from plant genome DBs (e.g. TAIR10 and RAP-DB) were also included in the cluster with a direct link to the original DB. (ii) The Plant Resource DB, integrating the SABRE DB, which provides cDNA and genome sequence resources accumulated and maintained in the RIKEN BioResource Center and National BioResource Projects. (iii) The DNA Marker DB, providing manually or automatically curated information of DNA markers, quantitative trait loci and related linkage maps, from the literature and external DBs. As the PGDBj targets various plant species, including model plants, algae, and crops important as food, fodder and biofuel, researchers in the field of basic biology as well as a wide range of agronomic fields are encouraged to perform searches using DNA sequences, gene names, traits and phenotypes of interest. The PGDBj will return the search results from the component DBs and various types of linked external DBs.

A portal website that integrates a variety of information related to genomes of model and crop plants from databases (DBs) and the literature was generated. This website, named the Plant Genome DataBase Japan (PGDBj, http://pgdbj. jp/en/ ), is comprised of three component DBs and a cross-search engine which provides a seamless search over their contents. One of the three component DBs is the Ortholog DB, which provides gene cluster information based on the amino acid sequence similarity. Over 1,000,000 amino acid sequences of 40 Viridiplantae species were collected from the public DNA DBs, and plant genome DBs such as TAIR and RAP-DB were subjected to reciprocal BLAST searches for clustering. Another component DB is the Plant Resource DB for genomic- and bio-resources. This DB also integrates the SABRE DB, which provides cDNA and genome sequence resources maintained in the RIKEN BioResource Center and National BioResource Projects Japan. The third component DB of PGDBj is the DNA Marker DB, which manually or automatically collects curated information on DNA markers, quantitative trait loci (QTL), and related genetic linkage maps, from the literature and external DBs. By combining these component DBs and a cross-search engine, PGDBj serves as a useful platform to study genetic systems for both fundamental and applied researches for a wide range of plant species.
