Plant Sciences community is a community of plant scientists with different backgrounds from bioinformatics to plant biology with the main objective of developing and supporting the integration and the linking of different plant data types from phenomics and genomics to transcriptomics, metabolomics and modeling.
Aims to develop tools and standards for efficient data management in plant sciences, mainly phenotypic and genotypic data, following FAIR data principles, and also to develop node services for data retrieval and analysis.
Functioning
- Develop or improve plant node services.
- Promote the adoption of the developed resources related to data management by plant scientists, following the FAIR data principles.
- Maintain collaboration with european partners at ELIXIR and interaction with other EU Infrastructures.
- Contribute to the proposal of a National High-Throughput Phenotyping Infrastructure.
