Abstract
In this paper, we present a new online comprehensive database developed for genome-related information of Indian plants (dGRIP). In strict sense, dGRIP database displays for each species and genus, its chromosome number(s) with comprehensive cytogenetic data, genome size, ploidy, systematics and molecular genetics related to Indian angiosperms, gymnosperms, pteridophytes and bryophytes. The data are described in the form of datasheets encompassing 29 parameters available for users to consolidate the knowledge with respect to comprehensive cytogenetical details. The chromosome database is developed based on object-relational database management system (Sequence Query Language) and includes references from which the information was sourced. The online database is currently available at http://sbtju.in/Dgrip/index.html consists of a main page, project information, collaborators and search tools for each group, namely angiosperms, gymnosperms pteridophytes and bryophytes. Currently, the information is available for about 1500 species (Release 1.0); however, the dGRIP continues to expand with goal to include data of more than 17,000 plant species from India.
