Araport (https://www.araport.org) aims to to provide Arabidopsis and plant scientists direct access to a new generation web-based data platform. Users can browse and analyze a wide array of data through Araport.  Users can also publish their own modules for sharing data with the community or building analysis workflows.

ThaleMine houses a wide array of Arabidopsis genomic information including the latest gene structures and functional annotation, coexpression, orthologs, interactions, pathways, publications, germplasm, phenotypes, etc.  Users can browse gene reports, run gene list enrichment analysis, export data tables, and save or share their work.

JBrowse hosts close to 100 data tracks that include data sources accessed in real-time. Examples include the latest gene structures, RNA-seq, T-DNA and TDNA-seq, 1001 genomes variants, whole-genome alignments, etc. Users can also upload and view their own data (BAM or GFF files) for side-by-side viewing.

Science Apps consist of  a growing collection of data or analysis modules that will serve as building blocks for creating discovery workflows.  The modules will be built and shared by the research community for interoperability and reuse. Users are encouraged to provide feedback on modules that they might need or could contribute.

Araport11 annotation contains comprehensive updates to both gene structures and functions of the Col-0 genome using public RNA-seq data, and has recently been completed and submitted to NCBI for final review.  The latest Araport11 data release can be accessed via Araport.
