National Database Resources (NRSP10) for Crop Genomics, Genetics and Breeding Research is a USDA NIFA, industry and US Land Grant Universities funded project which provides standardized database and informatics resources for undeserved or specialty crops such as tree fruit, nuts, and berries. It builds on existing database resources developed for Rosaceae (Genome Database for Rosaceae, www.rosaceae.org), Citrus (Citrus Genome Database, www.citrusgenomedb.org), Vaccinium (Genome Database for Vaccinium, www.vaccinium.org), Cool Season Food Legumes (Cool Season Food Legume Genome Database, www.csfl.org) and Cotton (CottonGen, www.cottongen.org). Developed using Tripal, an open-source, resource-efficient, modular, well supported software platform, these community databases provide centralized access to integrated genomic, genetic and breeding data and analysis tools for 24 crops representing a combined annual production value of over $25 B. The latest data and functionality provided in these databases includes integrated genomic, genetic and breeding data made accessible through various search pages, JBrowse, and the new interactive visualization tools such as TripalMap for genetic maps and Tripal Synteny Module for browsing conserved syntenic blocks among genomes. We will also highlight access to available public data through the new Breeding Information Management System (BIMS), a resource being developed for breeders to manage, store, and analyze their private breeding data integrated with public data in these databases.
