Abstract

The development of new high-throughput sequencing technologies has increased dramatically the number of successful genomic projects. Thus, draft genomic sequences of more than 60 plant species are currently available. Suitable bioinformatics tools are being developed to assemble, annotate and analyze the enormous number of sequences produced. In this context, specific plant comparative genomic databases are become powerful tools for gene family annotation in plant clades. In this mini-review, the current state-of-art of genomic projects is glossed. Besides, the computational tools developed to compare genomic data are compiled.

Highlights

  • The development of new high-throughput sequencing technologies has increased dramatically the number of successful genomic projects

  • Technologies and associated bioinformatic and computational tools Formerly, plant genomes have been usually sequenced by the Sanger have led to a deep increase in our knowledge of plant genomes [1,2,3]

  • According to the Genomes On-Line Database (GOLD), more sequencing (NGS) technologies that offer improvements in than 20 plant genomes have been already completed and there are throughput and cost efficiency by using massively parallel sequencing more than 200 ongoing plant genomic projects

Summary

Introduction

The development of new high-throughput sequencing technologies has increased dramatically the number of successful genomic projects. When the genomic sequence has been parsed, assembled and PlantGDB provides access to sequence data of a great number of plant species as well as to a variety of sequence and genome analysis annotated, the corresponding data have to be compiled in a database to facilitate their management by scientific researches.
