This Agrisemantics (previously called VEST-AgroPortal) Map of Data Standards provides a global map of existing vocabularies for the exchange of data in the field of food and agriculture. The directory is the result of the merging of records from two different sources: the VEST Registry (a registry of vocabularies of all types and all formats) and the AgroPortal (a repository of ontologies).

AgroLD is a RDF knowledge base that consists of data integrated from a variety of plant resources and ontologies. The aim of the Agronomic Linked Data (AgroLD) project is to provide a portal for bioinformatics and domain experts to exploit the homogenized data models towards efficiently generating research hypotheses.

The PGSB plant genomics group focuses on the analysis of plant genomes, using bioinformatic techniques. To store and manage the data, we developed a database, PlantsDB, that aims to provide a data and information resource for individual plant species. In addition PlantsDB provides a platform for integrative and comparative plant genome research.
