Update the rice genome sequence and improve the accuracy, functional annotation, and accessibility of gene models within the TIGR database.
Refined bioinformatic identification methods to distinguish non-transposable element genes from transposable element-related genes and capture alternative splicing events.
Integrated multiple transcript and proteomic expression datasets to validate predicted gene models.
Upgraded public access interfaces, including a 59-track genome browser, FTP downloads, and a custom Data Extractor tool.
Identified 42,653 non-transposable element genes encoding 49,472 gene models via alternative splicing, alongside 13,237 transposable element-related genes.
Annotated 24,799 genes (31,739 gene models) as actively expressed based on transcript and proteomic data, representing approximately 50% of all predicted gene models.
