ready Environment Ontology

Abbreviation: ENVO


Recommended
General Information
The Environment Ontology (EnvO) provides a controlled, structured vocabulary that is designed to support the annotation of any organism or biological sample with environment descriptors. EnvO contains terms ranging from astronomical objects, through planetary scale biomes, to nanomaterials. Further, these terms are interlinked with logical axioms describing their composition, colocalisation, and relationships to environmental and biological processes. Using ENVO terms for an environmental description allows a comprehensive description of environment that is key to machine-assisted integration, archiving and federated searching of environmental data.

Gramene: A curated, open-source, integrated data resource for comparative functional genomics in plants
Gramene's purpose is to provide added value to plant genomics data sets available within the public sector, which will facilitate researchers' ability to understand the plant genomes and take advantage of genomic sequence known in one species for identifying and understanding corresponding genes, pathways and phenotypes in other plant species. It represents a broad spectrum of species ranging from unicellular photo-autotrophs, algae, monocots, dicots and other important taxonomic clades. Within Plant Reactome, a database portal of Gramene, there are over 60 plant genomes as well as pathways for more than 80 species.
Manually Curated Database of Rice Proteins
‘Manually Curated Database of Rice Proteins’ (MCDRP) is a unique manually curated database based on published experimental data. Currently, the database has data for over 1800 rice proteins curated from > 4000 different experiments of over 400 research articles. Since every aspect of the experiment such as gene name, plant type, tissue and developmental stage has been digitized, experimental data can be rapidly accessed and integrated.
OBO Foundry
The Open Biological and Biomedical Ontology (OBO) Foundry is a collective of ontology developers that are committed to collaboration and adherence to shared principles. The mission of the OBO Foundry is to develop a family of interoperable ontologies that are both logically well-formed and scientifically accurate. To achieve this, OBO Foundry participants voluntarily adhere to and contribute to the development of an evolving set of principles including open use, collaborative development, non-overlapping and strictly-scoped content, and common syntax and relations, based on ontology models that work well, such as the Gene Ontology (GO). The OBO Foundry is overseen by an Operations Committee with Editorial, Technical and Outreach working groups.
Metabolomic Repository Bordeaux
MeRy-B is a plant metabolomics platform allowing the storage and visualisation of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) metabolic profiles from plants.
MAR databases
The MAR databases is a collection of manually curated marine microbial contextual and sequence databases, based at the Marine Metagenomics Portal. This was developed as a part of the ELIXIR EXCELERATE project in 2017 and is maintained by The Center for Bioinformatics (SfB) at the UiT The Arctic University of Norway. SfB is hosting the UiT node of ELIXIR Norway. The MarRef, MarDb, MarFun and MarCat contextual databases are built by compiling data from a number of public available sequence, taxonomy and literature databases in a semi-automatic fashion.
National Microbiome Data Collaborative
The National Microbiome Data Collaborative seeks to address fundamental roadblocks in microbiome data science and gaps in transdisciplinary collaboration. The NMDC's Phase I Pilot was launched in July 2019 funded by the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Science, Biological and Environmental Research program, with two strategic priorities — infrastructure and engagement. The infrastructure goal is to democratize microbiome data science by providing access to multidisciplinary, multi-omics data (e.g., metagenomics and metaproteomics) through distributed data resources, with seamless integration to platforms that support reproducible, cross- study analyses. The engagement goal is to enable community-driven shared ownership of microbiome data that supports open science across research teams, funders, publishers, and societies. Currently, no data are available, as this project is still in the development stage. Please sign up for our Quarterly newsletter via the website (starting in Sep 2020) for updates, feature releases, and ways to get involved.
