title = "FGDB: Revisiting the genome annotation of the plant pathogen Fusarium graminearum",
abstract = "The MIPS Fusarium graminearum Genome Database (FGDB) was established as a comprehensive genome database on one of the most devastating fungal plant pathogens of wheat, barley and maize. The current version of FGDB v3.1 provides information on the full manually revised gene set based on the Broad Institute assembly FG3 genome sequence. The results of gene prediction tools were integrated with the help of comparative data on related species to result in a set of 13.718 annotated protein coding genes. This rigorous approach involved adding or modifying gene models and represents a coding sequence gold standard for the genus Fusarium. The gene loci improvements results in 2461 genes which either are new or have different structures compared to the Broad Institute assembly 3 gene set. Moreover the database serves as a convenient entry point to explore expression data results and to obtain information on the Affymetrix GeneChip probe sets. The resource is accessible on http://mips.gsf.de/genre/ proj/FGDB/.",

note = "Funding Information: The setup of the first version of the FGDB (6) was supported by a project funded by the Austrian genome initiative GEN-AU and was based on the first genome assembly. It already focused on manual improvements of gene calls. The intuitive user interface allowed access to the data through various search and browsing methods. Input from the research community enhanced the annotation effort and established the resource as a key tool for F. graminearum genomics (5). Funding Information: Austrian Science Fund FWF (special research project Fusarium, F3702 and F3705).
