In the past several years, there has been a tremendous effort to construct
physical maps and to sequence the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana. As a
result, four of the five chromosomes are completely covered by overlapping
clones except at the centromeric and nucleolus organizer regions (NOR). In
addition, over 30% of the genome has been sequenced and completion is
anticipated by the end of the year 2000. Despite these accomplishments, the
physical maps are provided in many formats on laboratories' Web sites.
These data are thus difficult to obtain in a coherent manner for
researchers. To alleviate this problem, AtDB (Arabidopsis thaliana
DataBase, URL: http://genome- www.stanford.edu/Arabidopsis/) has
constructed a unified display of the physical maps where all publicly
available physical-map data for all chromosomes are presented through the
Web in a clickable, 'on-the-fly' graphic, created by CGI programs that
directly consult our relational database.
