Abstract
Bioinformatics plays a role, in the field of plant science today. With an increase in data volume, there is a growing demand for tools and methods for managing, visualizing, implementing, evaluating, modeling, and predicting this data. However many biology researchers may lack familiarity with the bioinformatics resources, which can lead to missed opportunities and misinterpretation of the data. In this review article, we highlighted the web resources that offer analysis capabilities for plant research data including genomics, transcriptomics, comparative genomics, bio-ontologies, sequence and structural comparisons plant disease related databases well as proteomics databases. Additionally we provide insights into integrated modules found within these resources that are specifically tailored for analyzing plant associated data. Overall this review aims to assist plant researchers in accessing bioinformatics resources for their data analysis needs while promoting the use of bioinformatics tools to effectively address experimental challenges, within the field of plant sciences.
