Curated pangenome resources for maize genomics and breeding research
An integrated academic portal for high-quality maize assemblies, sample metadata, pan-genome relationships, gene annotations, structural context, and browser-based analysis tools.
A research-grade knowledge base for maize diversity
The Maize Pangenome Database is led by the Maize Genomic Breeding Team of Yazhou Bay National Laboratory, in collaboration with the Biotechnology Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Center of Genomics and Bioinformatics at the College of Agriculture, South China Agricultural University.
The platform integrates high-quality genome assemblies and provides structured access to allelic relationships, gene annotation, genomic structure, phylogenetic context, and multi-tissue expression profiles for maize research, genetic improvement, and molecular breeding.
Primary entry points
Sample Information
Browse sample records, population metadata, and phylogenetic relationships.
Pan-Genome
Explore pan-alleles, pan-transcriptome records, and orthogroup relationships.
Gene Annotation
Query functional annotation, gene structure, transposable elements, and syntenic loci.
Analysis Tools
Use browser-based utilities for sequence search, genome browsing, and ID conversion.
From accession to biological interpretation
Identify material
Start from sample information or tree placement to select relevant maize lines.
Compare loci
Move through pan-genome and synteny views to inspect conservation and variation.
Interpret genes
Review functional annotations, structures, TE context, and expression profiles.
Validate externally
Use BLAST, JBrowse, downloadable files, and citation records for downstream analysis.
