粮食安全是一个受到重新审视的问题，因为人们担心需要大幅提高谷类作物的产量才能养活世界不断增长的人口。在这方面，小麦是人类消费和牲畜饲料的三种最重要的作物之一，具有根本的重要性;然而，作物产量的增加并没有跟上不断增长的世界人口的需求。为了解决这个问题，植物育种家需要新的分子工具来帮助他们识别可以引入优良品种的重要农艺性状的基因。使用下一代测序技术对基因组进行研究，可以确定分子标记，如单核苷酸多态性，育种者可以在育种新品种时使用这些标记来识别和跟踪基因。下一代测序技术的发展和应用使得小麦SNP标记的表征相对便宜和简单。越来越需要向植物育种者广泛传播这一信息。CerealsDB是一个在线资源，包含一系列小麦（Triticum aestivum）的基因组数据集，将帮助植物育种家和科学家选择最合适的标记进行标记辅助选择。CerealsDB包括一个数据库，该数据库目前包含超过100，000个推定的品种SNP，其中数千个已通过实验验证。此外，CerealsDB包含DArT标记和EST序列的数据库，并链接到小麦品种中国春的基因组序列草图。CerealsDB是一个开放访问的网站，正在迅速成为小麦研究和植物育种社区的宝贵资源。
Food security is an issue that has come under renewed scrutiny amidst concerns that substantial yield increases in cereal crops are required to feed the world’s booming population. Wheat is of fundamental importance in this regard being one of the three most important crops for both human consumption and livestock feed; however, increase in crop yields have not kept pace with the demands of a growing world population. In order to address this issue, plant breeders require new molecular tools to help them identify genes for important agronomic traits that can be introduced into elite varieties. Studies of the genome using next-generation sequencing enable the identification of molecular markers such as single nucleotide polymorphisms that may be used by breeders to identify and follow genes when breeding new varieties. The development and application of next-generation sequencing technologies has made the characterisation of SNP markers in wheat relatively cheap and straightforward. There is a growing need for the widespread dissemination of this information to plant breeders. CerealsDB is an online resource containing a range of genomic datasets for wheat (Triticum aestivum) that will assist plant breeders and scientists to select the most appropriate markers for marker assisted selection. CerealsDB includes a database which currently contains in excess of 100,000 putative varietal SNPs, of which several thousand have been experimentally validated. In addition, CerealsDB contains databases for DArT markers and EST sequences, and links to a draft genome sequence for the wheat variety Chinese Spring. CerealsDB is an open access website that is rapidly becoming an invaluable resource within the wheat research and plant breeding communities.
