Pan-genomic resources at MaizeGDB
Pan-genomes, encompassing the entirety of genetic sequences found in a collection of genome assemblies within a clade, can be more useful than single reference genomes. This is especially true for Zea mays, which has a particularly diverse and complex genome. Presenting full pan-genome data is challenging, especially for a diverse species, but valuable when pan-genomic data can be linked to extensive gene model and gene data, including classical gene information, markers, insertions, expression and proteomic data, and protein structures as is the case at MaizeGDB. I will present the pan-gene analysis pipeline pipeline Pandagma, and MaizeGDB’s pan-gene data center, which offers a variety of browsing and visualizations, including sequence alignment visualization, gene trees and more, which enables exploration of pan-genes in Zea .
