Motivation?
Motivation
• Goal of legume genome project
- Investigate the process of genome restructuring
following polyploidization in plants (soybean and its
relatives in the Glycine genus)
- Try answering questions like :
- Genome evolution on both short(<100,000yrs)
and long (>50 million yrs) time scale
- Evolution of disease resistance (R) genes.
Motivation
• To answer these questions:
- 1 Mbp syntenic genomic regions from six taxa
as well as their duplicated regions in the
polyploidy members (12 such regions in total)
will be sequenced and analyzed.
- These regions contain several important
disease resistance (R) genes.

Procedure
1. Create and make available Bacterial
Artificial Chromosome (BAC) libraries of
each species.
Indexing available BAC, BAC end sequences,
library, probes, vector, gel images
Background
2. Assemble syntenic BAC contigs from
each library
i. Strategically chosen soybean clones are
used as probes

ii. Individual probes are hybridized to high-density BAC
filters representing all the target genomes
Background

iii. Integrity of contigs is confirmed by
fingerprinting
iv. Set of clones that hybridize to two or more
probes are selected
v. BACs representing the tentative minimum
tiling path will be end sequenced

Information System
-
Centrally available data
-
User-friendly interface for retrieving the information
-
Updated progress information
-
Tools for interpreting the results.
Works as an Laboratory Management Information

Steps for designing the Information
System.
1. Design the Database
- Data: BAC, BES, Probes, Libraries,
vector, library screen hits etc.
Design
- Visualize the relationship between these
large amount of data.
For example,
Library table stores detailed information about
each library used rather than having each BAC
storing the library information
Design
- Created tables based on these relationship
Main tables used in the database are:
BAC
GEL IMAGES
GENOTYPE
LIBRARY SCREENS
PRIMER
PROBE WITHIN BACS
BES
GENOMIC SOUTHERNS
LIBRARY
LIBRARY SCREEN HITS
PROBE
VECTOR

2. Populate the database with initial set of
data
- Initial set of data was stored in form of MSExcel.
- Perl script for parsing information.
Design
• Web Database Application
- understanding the needs for the project
- Web database interface
- displays information about the
project
- add and update interface
- tools for analyses
Design
• For determining the tiling path
- Designing a Visualization tool
- displays the locations of the clones with
respect to probes
- Probes are strategically chosen from soybean
genomes
Design
- Input : library name
- subset of probes with at least one hit with the library
are selected
- BAC clones for the library are generated which have
hits with probes
- Probes are arranged in order of their position
- BACs are mapped to these probes.
Design
• System Specifications
- Database: Oracle 9i
- Languages: PHP, Perl, HTML, JavaScript
- Web Server: Apache 1.3.29
- Platform: Unix (SunOS 5.9)
