Research Project:
DEVELOPMENT OF BIOINFORMATICS TOOLS FOR LIVESTOCK
Location: Bovine Functional Genomics
Project Number: 1265-31000-090-00
Project Type:
Appropriated
Start Date: Aug 10, 2003
End Date: Sep 11, 2007
Objective:
Develop bioinformatic tools for acquisition and analysis of DNA sequence information system established for genetic marker data. Develop tools to automate data processing. Develop tools for data entry and display for use by researchers.
Approach:
Purchase hardware as needed and develop and purchase software as needed to implement bioinformatics platform needed to acquire, store, and analyze genetic marker, DNA sequenc, and gene expression data. Automate data acquisition, sequence analysis, linkage analysis, and QTL mapping using database triggers, scripts, and other appropriate tools. Develop tools for researchers to submit data to the Oracle database. Develop web pages for data queries, reports, and summaries. Tools will be developed cooperatively with other ARS bioinformatics groups, especially Clay Center, Nebraska.
