Update in progress: note to all users. FAIRsharing is always available for you to search and discover databases, standards and data policies. However, for producers of these resources who maintain or wish to add new records, please note that editing is disabled until September while we migrate our data to our new, improved system. Read our blog post or get in touch with us for more details.

21/09/21 Ongoing Network Maintenance: From the 21st of September FAIRsharing may be offline at various point during the day; we apologise for any inconvenience.

The Arabidopsis Information Resource

Abbreviation:TAIR

Recommended

General Information

The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR) maintains a database of genetic and molecular biology data for the model higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Data available from TAIR includes the complete genome sequence along with gene structure, gene product information, gene expression, DNA and seed stocks, genome maps, genetic and physical markers, publications, and information about the Arabidopsis research community. Gene product function data is updated every week from the latest published research literature and community data submissions.
