Grassroots Genomics is a gateway for the plant genomics community to access and record a wide range of data types. It connects data generators and data users to provide an information-rich sharing and analysis platform.
The Grassroots Genomics platform is powered by a powerful yet lightweight set of middleware services, called the Grassroots Infrastructure, which comprises:
- a data management layer to provide structure to unstructured filesystems;
- interfaces to interact with local or cloud-based analysis platforms;
- a search layer to provide multi-faceted metadata and literature querying; a web server layer to deliver content and provide access to public programmatic interfaces.
The platform improves the interconnectedness of the research community by consolidating and connecting to a number of bioinformatics tools and infrastructure, making previously unavailable, manually-recorded data more accessible.
We are committed to maintaining and promoting the principles of Open Data to enable discoveries, and to enhance the value of integrative research, and work with wheat communities and technologists to deliver a coordinated and federated infrastructure.
