Database Description
To organize data resulting from the phenotypic characterization of a library of T-DNA insertion lines of rice (Oryza sativa L cv. Nipponbare), we developed the Oryza Tag Line database (http://genoplante-info.infobiogen.fr/OryzaTagLine/), a project supported by the French genomic initiative GÉnoplante. Today, this database describes 5,000 insertion lines. In the long term, the database will contain information about 46,000 insertion lines already produced. Generic features such as production records and seed stocks, as well as textual and pictorial information on GUS or GFP assays in specific organs or tissues, or morphophysiological alterations observed during field evaluation of the insertion lines are displayed. Forward genetic search is possible through a web interface where users can submit queries based on phenotypic alterations, reporter gene expression or keywords. We also propose to combine different types of queries in an advanced search page.
