Tea Plant Information Archive: a comprehensive genomics and bioinformatics platform for tea plant.

ABSTRACT: Tea is the world's widely consumed nonalcohol beverage with essential economic and health benefits. Confronted with the increasing large-scale omics-data set particularly the genome sequence released in tea plant, the construction of a comprehensive knowledgebase is urgently needed to facilitate the utilization of these data sets towards molecular breeding. We hereby present the first integrative and specially designed web-accessible database, Tea Plant Information Archive (TPIA; http://tpia.teaplant.org). The current release of TPIA employs the comprehensively annotated tea plant genome as framework and incorporates with abundant well-organized transcriptomes, gene expressions (across species, tissues and stresses), orthologs and characteristic metabolites determining tea quality.
