PICEAdatabase: a web database for Picea omics and phenotypic information

AbstractPicea belongs to thePinaceae family and is a famous commercial tree species because of its straight trunk and excellent timber traits. Recently, omics have been widely used for fundamental and mechanism studies onPicea plants. To improve the accessibility to omics and phenotypic data and facilitate further studies, we compiled the sequences of 2 chloroplast genomes (Picea crassifolia andPicea asperata) and 32 complete omics data sets, including 20 transcriptomes, 4 proteomes, 2 degradomes and 6 microRNAs fromP.crassifolia,P.asperata,Picea balfouriana andPicea abies tissues under different treatments, in PICEAdatabase. In addition, phenotypic data on plant growth and wood property traits were collected from two field trials ofP.crassifolia. PICEAdatabase also includes useful analysis tools, such as BLAST, DESeq2 and JBrowse, to assist with analyses.
