The Citrus Genome Database (CGD, www.citrusgenomedb.org) is a resource for researchers and breeders in the citrus industry. It contains curated genetic marker, map, and QTL data as well as genome data for clementine and sweet orange. The database also has the most up-to-date version of CitrusCyc v3.0 which includes metabolic maps for the C. clementina and C. sinensis genomes. The database also has several tools to aid in research, including BLAST for searches against the genome sequences, GBrowse for viewing genomes, and CMap for viewing or comparing genetic map data. The ultimate goal of the Citrus Genome Database is to provide a single website where researchers can view/query/download all current genetics, genomics and breeding data for citrus as well as have access to analysis tools that are useful for research and crop improvement.
