YamOmics：ヤムのマルチオミクスに関する包括的なデータリソース

Yams (Dioscorea spp.) are a highly important class of horticultural crops, serving as a staple food for millions of people in Africa and contributing significantly to food security. They are also widely cultivated in East Asia as medicinal herbs, bringing substantial economic incomes. Diverse omics data play a pivotal role in advancing yam research and breeding. However, these data are often scattered, lacking in systematic organization and analysis, which underscores the need for centralized and comprehensive data management. In view of this, we gathered extensive omics data and developed the Yam Omics Database (YamOmics; https://biotec.njau.edu.cn/yamdb). The database currently offers a vast and diverse range of omics data, covering genomic, transcriptomic and plastomic data from 41 distinct yam species, along with detailed records of genomic variants from 935 germplasms, and gene expression profiles from 191 samples. Additionally, the database features thorough annotations, encompassing aspects like genome synteny, ortholog groups, signaling pathways, gene families and protein interactions. To support yam basic biology and breeding research, it is also equipped with a suite of user-friendly online tools, including PCR primer design, CRISPR design, expression analysis, enrichment analysis, and phylogenetic inference among Dioscorea accessions tools.
