Abstract

DNA microarray technology produces large amounts of data. For data mining of these datasets, background information on genes can be helpful. Unfortunately most information is stored in free text. Here, we present an approach to use this information for DNA microarray data mining.

CamK-DB: A k-mer MinHash fingerprint database for reference-free genotyping of Camellia accessions.

Tea (Camellia sinensis L.), a major global economic crop in Asia, poses challenges for genetic identification because its highly heterozygous, repetitive genome reduces the efficacy of conventional single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and microsatellite markers, and interspecific hybridization further complicates the situation. To address these issues, CamK-DB was developed as a reference-free Camellia fingerprinting database built on MIKE MinHash sketches. We curated 418 candidate resequencing datasets, and built a database using standardized 5× genome-coverage fingerprints. Each accession is stored as a MIKE. jac fingerprint generated with k = 21 and recommended sketch/pre_cnt = 2000. CamK-DB provides a command-line interface for data management and a custom C++ query engine that computes top-10 matches using Jaccard similarity, complemented by a QT-based graphical interface for interactive analysis. This resource offers a robust and scalable framework for precise and routine germplasm identification, genomic phylogenetic inference, and strategic breeding program design. CamK-DB (database and code) is publicly available at https://github.com/sc-zhang/CamK-DB. CamK-DB binaries are provided for Windows 10/11 and Linux (x86_64, glibc ≥ 2.27).

The Saccharomyces Genome Database-a history of ideas and accomplishments, 1994-2026.

The Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) is one of the longest-running and most consequential biological databases in the world. Founded in the early 1990s at Stanford University under the visionary leadership of David Botstein and developed under the long-term technical direction of J. Michael Cherry, SGD has served for more than three decades not only as the authoritative knowledge center for the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but also as the source for much of the fundamentals of eukaryotic biology. This history traces the arc of a remarkable intellectual and scientific project: beginning with the challenge of building the very first integrated eukaryotic genome database and evolving across 30 years into a global knowledge hub for genetics, functional genomics, and human disease research. The history is organized chronologically, with each section highlighting the central ideas, technical developments, and concrete accomplishments of that period.

Gencube: centralized retrieval and integration of multi-omics resources from leading databases.

MOTIVATION: The volume of multi-omics data for diverse species is growing at an unprecedented rate, with new genome assemblies, related annotations, and high-throughput sequencing resources being submitted daily to various genomic data repositories. In response to this data influx, both existing and new databases are establishing optimized hierarchical structures to manage the vast amount of information. However, the lack of accessible command-line tools, combined with the functional limitations and unintuitive design of existing options, presents significant challenges for researchers. This gap underscores a critical need for a tool that enables streamlined retrieval and integration of omics data across these diverse repositories. RESULTS: We have developed Gencube, a command-line tool that enables centralized retrieval and integration of a comprehensive set of six different data types-genome assemblies, gene sets, annotations, sequences, comparative genomic data, and NGS-based omics resources-from various leading databases. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Gencube is a free and open-source tool, with its code available on GitHub: https://github.com/snu-cdrc/gencube and also archived on Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14607649.
