About Gramene
Gramene is a comparative genome database for cereal crops and a community resource agricultural researchers and plant breeders of rice and other grasses. Our goal is to facilitate the study of cross-species homology relationships using information derived from public projects involved in genomic and EST sequencing, protein structure and function analysis, genetic and physical mapping, interpretation of biochemical pathways, gene and QTL localization, controlled vocabularies and descriptions of phenotypic characters and mutations.

The current Gramene version is 29, released in March 2009. This release is based on Ensembl 52, released in December 2008. For details on what's new in this release, see NEWS
About Gramene-Ensembl
The Gramene Genome Browser is a web-based tool for viewing annotations mapped to plant (in particular cereal) genomes and physical maps. The Browser is built on Ensembl technology.
Ensembl is a joint project between EMBL - EBI and the Sanger Institute
to develop a software system which produces and maintains automatic
annotation on selected eukaryotic genomes. Ensembl is primarily funded by
the Wellcome Trust.
