The Arabidopsis Stress Responsive Gene Database

Abstract EN

Plants in nature may face a wide range of favorable or unfavorable biotic and abiotic factors during their life cycle.

Any of these factors may cause stress in plants; therefore, they have to be more adaptable to stressful environments and must acquire greater response to different stresses.

The objective of this study is to retrieve and arrange data from the literature in a standardized electronic format for the development of information resources on potential stress responsive genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.

This provides a powerful mean for manipulation, comparison, search, and retrieval of records describing the nature of various stress responsive genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.

The database is based exclusively on published stress tolerance genes associated with plants.
