araport

is a Data Source.

It is part of the BER collection.

Araport (the Arabidopsis Information Portal) was a J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) project that provided an integrated data warehouse, genome browser, and analysis apps for Arabidopsis thaliana research. Its central product, Araport11, is the complete 2016/2017 reannotation of the A. thaliana Col-0 reference genome, refining gene models and adding non-coding RNAs based on extensive RNA-seq evidence. The Araport web portal was retired around 2018 after funding ended, with its data and services migrated to TAIR, NCGR, and the Bio-Analytic Resource (BAR/ThaleMine). The Araport11 gene/locus annotation remains a standard reference annotation, distributed via TAIR and Phytozome, and is used by downstream resources such as the Stress Knowledge Map.

Details

Araport (Arabidopsis Information Portal)

Description

Araport, the Arabidopsis Information Portal, was a J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) project that delivered an integrated, community-facing data warehouse and set of web applications for Arabidopsis thaliana genomics. Its flagship output was Araport11, a complete reannotation of the A. thaliana Col-0 reference genome published in 2016/2017, which updated gene models and incorporated newly characterized non-coding RNAs using deep RNA-seq evidence.

After project funding ended, the Araport web portal was sunset around 2018, and its functionality was distributed across The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR, arabidopsis.org), the National Center for Genome Resources (NCGR), and the Bio-Analytic Resource for Plant Biology (BAR). Although the portal itself is inactive, the Araport11 annotation lives on as a standard reference annotation served through TAIR and JGI Phytozome, and it is the gene/locus annotation used by the Stress Knowledge Map (SKM).

Products

  • Araport11 Genome Annotation (Phytozome) — the Araport11 reannotation of the Arabidopsis Col-0 reference genome (gene models, transcripts, non-coding RNAs), distributed via the JGI Phytozome plant genomics portal.
  • ThaleMine (BAR) — the InterMine-based data warehouse originally built for Araport, now hosted at the Bio-Analytic Resource for Plant Biology, serving Araport11-based gene and functional data.
