Gramene's impact on plant research in 2015-2016

Gramene database (www.gramene.org) offers resources for conducting comparative studies on plant genomes and pathways. Over the years, we have made efforts to reach out to the various communities of plant scientists and have assisted many individuals in using various tools/and resources available from the Gramene. We have also established connection between ours and other publicly available data sources. In year 2015 and 2016, Gramene has been cited ~90 times by various researchers.

Gramene Database build 51 is out!

The Gramene Team is pleased to announce its release #51. In collaboration with Ensembl Plants, we are providing in this release:

Fascination of Plants Day 2016 -- Seeds grown on Earth and shipped to space!

Fascination of Plants Day (FoPD) is celebrated around the world on May 18th.  Although this worldwide event runs every other year and the next one is planned for 2017, smaller and local events were encouraged per individual and local interest on 2016.

What a better way to celebrate FoPD than learning about the awesomeness of plants and the seeds they make!
