GDR Newsletter January 2006

by Sook Jung

GDR Newsletter January 2006 Welcome to the fourth issue of the GDR newsletter. This newsletter is to inform users about new or updated data and features in GDR and community related news. Please feel free to provide feedback and news either directly by email or via our online form. The online version can be found at http://www.mainlab.clemson.edu/gdr/newsletter/newsletter0106.shtml Attached is the pdf version of this newsletter. Community News 1. Fruit and Nut Workshop, Saturday January 14, 8 am-12 pm. Plant and Animal Genome Conference XIV, San Diego, January 14-18, 2006. Conference organizer: Dr Amy Iezzoni. A Rosaceae genomics roundtable meeting will be held on Sunday January 15th, 8-10 am and the Rosaceae executive committee will meet on Sunday January 15th, 10am-12pm. 2. 3rd International Rosaceae Genomics Conference will be held in Napier, New Zealand, March 19-23, 2006. 3. The International Fruit Tree Association Annual Conference will be held in Hershey, Pennsylvania, USA, February 26-March 1, 2006 What's new at GDR? 1. Proposal to renew funding for GDR submitted to the NSF Plant Genome Program. 2. New EST libraries are available. 3. Rosaceae Unigene v2 with enhanced annotation available. 4. Prunus bin map data is available in CMap and marker search engine. 5. Enhanced SSR server now available with primer generating option. 6. More databases are available for blast/fasta sequence similarity search. 7. Data available for the three peach BACs that are completely sequenced. 8. New Roseaceae Genomics Executive Committee web page. 9. The GDR publications database now contains 242 papers relevant to Rosaceae genetics/genomics. 1. GDR Renewal Proposal Submitted to NSF Plant Genome Program In November 2005, a multi-institution proposal was submitted to the National Science Foundation Plant Genome Program to renew funding support for GDR through August 2009. The proposal if funded will significantly enhance the functionality and usefulness of GDR for the rosaceae community. If you's like more information on this proposal please contact Dorrie Main. 2. New EST libraries are available. The diploid strawberry species, Fragaria vesca, a putative genome donor to the octoploid, cultivated species (Fragaria x ananassa) is being been developed as a model system for genetic and genomic research in strawberry.Tom Davis at the University of New Hampshire, USA, has provided 2717 ESTs from the unopened flower buds of diploid strawberries. A full analysis results of his library can be viewed/downloaded from the project page and the ESTs can be queried at the EST search site. Peach (Prunus persica) represents a model species for prunus and a reference species for Rosaceae. To develop an extensive Prunus EST database for identification and cloning of genes important to fruit and tree development, Bert Abbott at Clemson University, USA, generated 8832 high-quality expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a peach cDNA library of shoot tissue. After assembly and annotation, a putative peach unigene set consisting of 5381 ESTs was defined. Full analysis results of his library can be viewed/downloaded from the project page and the ESTs can be queried at the EST search site. 3. Rosaceae Unigene v2 with enhanced annotation available. A second version of the Rosaceae family unigene is now available. A new assembly process is being utilized; the ESTs are assembled using CAP3 within each genera (Fragaria, Malus, Prunus, Pyrus, and Rosa), and these assemblies are compiled and re-assembled together to produce the family-wide unigene. The new Rosaceae Unigene contains 72114 unigenes. Putative function has been assigned using the arabidopsis protein database and will be further expanded using the swissprot and NCBI nr protein databases. The unigenes have been analyzed for microsatellites and the results including suggested primers can be downloaded. Please see each project page (Fragaria, Malus, Prunus, Rosa and Rosaceae) to view/download all the GDR unigene data. 4. Prunus bin map is available in CMap and marker search engine. A Prunus bin map (Howad et al., 2005), is now available in GDR. CMap displays the prunus bin map with bin names and the first/ last markers of each bin, and the bin-mappded markers are displayed in each bin page. For example, all the bin mapped markers of the first bin in G1 are shown in bin 1:14 page. All the markers in the prunus bin map can be queried through the GDR marker search page. 5. Enhanced SSR server now available with primer generating option. The online SSR server at GDR has been enhanced to include an option to have primers generated for the sequences that users wish to data mine for microsatellites. 6. More databases are available for blast/fasta sequence similarity search. The databases available for blast/fasta sequence similarity search includes the following: peach ESTs, unigenes and ESTs with SSR's, BAC anchored peach ESTs, mapped peach ESTs, almond ESTs and unigenes (Abbott, Clemson U); peach ESTs and unigenes, peach ESTs with SSR's (Vendramin, CRA ISF); octoploid strawberry ESTs, unigenes, and ESTs with SSRs (Folta, U of Florida); diploid strawberry ESTs and unigenes (Davis, U of New Hampshire); ESTs of Fragaria, Malus, Prunus, Pyrus, Rosa, and entire Rosaceae family from NCBI dbEST; NCBI Rosaceae genomic sequences; NCBI Rosaceae protein sequences; Arabidopsis protein sequences from TAIR. A detailed description of the databases is available in each search engine. The blast/fasta sequence servers return the output of the searches in both parsed excel file and as a raw output file with visual alignments. 7. Data available for the three peach BACs that are completely sequenced. Anchored ESTs/markers and the sequences for the three BACs (082I18, 028F08 and pPn31C7) can be accessed from BAC search site. An online annotation pipeline is currently under development by the GDR team. 8. New Rosaceae Executive Committee web page created to provide a communication portal for information and reports generated by the committee. 9. The GDR publications database now contains 242 papers relevant to Rosaceae genetics/genomics. New publications since our last newsletter are listed below: 1. Lazzari B et al. ESTree db: a tool for peach functional genomics. BMC Bioinformatics. 2005 Dec 1;6 Suppl 4:S16. 2.

GDR newsletter August 2005

by Sook Jung

GDR Newsletter August 2005 Welcome to the third issue of the GDR newsletter. This newsletter is issued quarterly to inform users about new or updated data and features in GDR and community related news. Please feel free to provide feedback and news either directly by email or via our online form. The online version can be found at http://www.mainlab.clemson.edu/gdr/newsletter0705.shtml Attached is the pdf version of this newsletter. What's new at GDR? 1. GDR web address change 2. Updates to peach transcriptome map 3. Anchored genes and ESTs are displayed in genetic maps in CMap 4. New EST data 5. Run InterProScan directly from the EST detail page 6. Bulk search and download feature available in the EST search pages. 7. Abstracts and powerpoint presentations of NRI funded projects available Community News 1. International Symposium on Biotechnology of Temperate Fruit Crops and Tropical Species, Daytona Beach, FL USA, October 10-14, 2005 2. Fruit and Nut Workshop, Saturday January 14, 8 am-12 pm. Plant and Animal Genome Conference XIV, San Diego, January 14-18, 2006. Conference organizer, Dr Amy Iezzoni. 3. 3rd International Rosaceae Genomics Conference in Napier, New Zealand, March 19-23, 2006 What's new at GDR? 1. GDR web address change. GDR is now accessible at the following URL: http://www.rosaceae.org. At the current time this URL will be redirected to http://www.mainlab.clemson.edu/gdr while we move the database over to the new web address. In all future web references to GDR please use the http://www.rosaceae.org URL. 2. Updates to peach transcriptome map. Unique peach ESTs are being hybridized to peach BACs to map the ESTs onto the genetically anchored peach physical map. 569 peach unigenes are anchored to various Rosaceae genetic maps. 367 of them are anchored by direct hybridization to genetically anchored BACs and the rest (202) are anchored by hybridization to BACs that belong to genetically anchored BAC contigs. 375 unigenes are anchored to the TxE map. GDR map viewer and the downloadable peach transcriptome data reflects the updated peach transcriptome map. 3. Anchored genes and ESTs are displayed in genetic maps in CMap. The 25 major genes affecting agronomic characters, anchored to TxE map (Dirlewanger et al, 2004), are now displayed in TxE map in CMap.The peach ESTs are also displayed by the markers with which they share BACs or BAC contigs in hybridization in eight Prunus genetic maps. The anchored ESTs and markers in CMap are linked to GDR detail pages. View an example CMap page. 4. New EST data A new peach EST dataset sequenced by Elisa Vendramin from the CRA Istituto Sperimentale per la Frutticoltura is now publicly available. A total of 1667 clones from peach fruit mesocarp have been analyzed. Assembly of these ESTs produced 1116 putative peach unigenes within this dataset. 5. Run protein motif and domain searches using InterProScan. Users can now search ESTs against the European Bioinformatics Institutes InterPro database directly from GDR. InterPro is a database of protein families, domains and functional sites in which identifiable features found in known proteins can be applied to translated ESTs. Finding functional domains in a EST may corroborate the putative function obtained by sequence homology or provide more information for ESTs with no homology to other known proteins. Our site programmatically accesses EBI's InterProScan so users can query InterPro without uploading EST sequences at the EBI's site. To access an example EST page, go to (http://www.mainlab.clemson.edu/java/gdr/EST.jsp? CloneName_Result=PP_LEa0002H11f) and run InterProScan. 6. Bulk search and download feature available in the EST search pages. A bulk search is available for peach, almond, strawberry, and GenBank rosaceae EST datasets. Users can upload a file with multiple clone names or Genbank accession numbers and have returned to them all the sequence and homology information associated with those sequences. Any bulk EST search query will now return downloadable files of fasta formatted sequence and homology results. 7. Abstracts and powerpoint presentations of NRI funded projects. View and download all the abstracts and powerpoint presentations of the NRI funded projects presented at the recent ASHS meeting. Many thanks to the authors and Dr Ed Kaleiko for providing us with this information.
