包括面包小麦（Triticum aestivum L.）和大麦（Hordeum vulgare L.）在内的许多重要小麦科植物的基因组序列由于其高重复数、大尺寸和多倍性而长期未被确定。由于测序技术的改进和新的分析策略，其中一些最近已被破译。这些努力对小麦生物学和基因组组织产生了新的见解，对育种家、实验生物学家和比较基因组学家的下游应用具有重要意义。移植（http://www.transplantdb.eu）是一个欧盟资助的项目，旨在为生命科学基因组规模的研究构建硬件、软件和数据基础设施。由于Triticeae数据本质上是复杂的、异构的和分布式的，移植联盟已经开始努力开发通用的数据格式和工具，使来自分布式资源的数据能够交换和集成。在这里，我们概述了由移植合作伙伴托管的单个小麦基因组资源，介绍了移植的目标，并概述了支持集成数据访问的共同发展和接口。
The genome sequences of many important Triticeae species, including bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), remained uncharacterized for a long time because their high repeat content, large sizes, and polyploidy. As a result of improvements in sequencing technologies and novel analyses strategies, several of these have recently been deciphered. These efforts have generated new insights into Triticeae biology and genome organization and have important implications for downstream usage by breeders, experimental biologists, and comparative genomicists. transPLANT (http://www.transplantdb.eu) is an EU‐funded project aimed at constructing hardware, software, and data infrastructure for genome‐scale research in the life sciences. Since the Triticeae data are intrinsically complex, heterogenous, and distributed, the transPLANT consortium has undertaken efforts to develop common data formats and tools that enable the exchange and integration of data from distributed resources. Here we present an overview of the individual Triticeae genome resources hosted by transPLANT partners, introduce the objectives of transPLANT, and outline common developments and interfaces supporting integrated data access.
