From: Fuzhou News Website

Recently, the team of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University developed the world’s first EGDB(https://engrass.juncaodb.cn/), which provides a powerful data support platform for the research of energy grass. Related research papers were recently published online in the journal iMeta.

“For energy grasses, although genome and transcriptome data can be obtained, epigenetic data sets are still scarce. Therefore, we supplemented the epigenetic data of EGDB and constructed a comprehensive epigenetic map of pearl millet.”The relevant person in charge of the research team introduced.

The launch of EGDB not only provides a platform for the research of energy grass to integrate data resources and tools, but also has great significance for promoting the development of sustainable agriculture and renewable energy.
