Rice is an important crop species and serves as a model for the study of a number of agriculturally important cereals such as maize (corn), wheat, sorghum, barley and oats. Rice has a small genome and an advanced draft of the genome is publicly available with the anticipated completion of a finished genome in late 2004. While DNA sequence is valuable, it is the annotation of the sequence that greatly improves it utility to biologists. The annotation of the rice genome is the focus of this project. Genes, functions and other features will be identified in the rice genome and made publicly available through a project web site and database. These data will be valuable in understanding not only rice but also important cereal species. A second focus of this project is to contribute to the finishing of the rice genome as part of the International Rice Genome Sequencing Project. Annotated rice genomic sequence generated by the project will be available at http://www.tigr.org/tdb/e2k1/osa1/.

水稻是一种重要的作物物种，并作为研究许多农业上重要的谷物如玉米（玉米）、小麦、高粱、大麦和燕麦的模型。 水稻的基因组很小，基因组的高级草图已经公开，预计2004年底完成基因组。 虽然DNA序列是有价值的，但对序列的注释大大提高了它对生物学家的效用。水稻基因组注释是本项目的重点。将在水稻基因组中确定基因、功能和其他特征，并通过项目网站和数据库向公众提供。这些数据不仅对了解水稻，而且对了解重要的谷类物种都很有价值。该项目的第二个重点是作为国际水稻基因组测序项目的一部分，为完成水稻基因组做出贡献。 该项目产生的注释水稻基因组序列将在http://www.tigr.org/tdb/e2k1/osa1/上提供。
