transPLANT
is a European-Union funded e-infrstructure to support computational analysis of genomic data from crop and model plants. The project funds coordination and research activities; and provides free access to tools, training and data standards.
You can use this site to:
- Find content from ten different plant genomics databases in a single click e.g. search for "rubisco".
- Find out what genomic databases are available for your species of interest in our genome resource registry e.g. look for "Arabidopsis" here.
- Archive, accession and update plant variation data: find out more.
- Build phenotype and environment datasets with the Environment and Phenotype Information System (Ephesis).
- Query LAILAPS, an advanced information retrieval system for all kinds of biological data.
- Use the Genome Assembly Decision Support System.

Training
transPLANT is running a series of training courses across Europe. The next one will be held at EMBL-EBI, Hinton, UK, 1st-3rd July, 2015. When registration is opened, details will be posted here.
Standards
The development and adoption of data standards is vital to the interoperability of data. transPLANT is currently pursuing the development of standards for plant phenotyping data, in collaboration with other interested groups. Visit our Phenotype standardisation portal to see the latest proposals and get involved.
