Community survey for phytopathogen resources
FungiDB and Ensembl are teaming up to enhance resources for fungal and oomycete plant pathogen research - a collaboration funded by the BBSRC.
We need feedback from the phytopathogen community to help shape which genomes and functional datasets we prioritise.
Please provide your input by completing our short community survey by November 1, 2025:

PhytoPath

PhytoPath logo PhytoPath integrates genome-scale data from plant pathogen species with literature-curated information about the phenotypes of host infection. Using the Ensembl browser, it provides access to complete genome assembly and gene models of priority crop and model fungal, oomycete and bacterial phytopathogens. PhytoPath also links genes to disease progression using data from the curated PHI-base resource.

Funding

PhytoPath is funded by a grant from the Bioinformatics and Biological Resources Fund of the United Kingdom Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (grant number BB/I001077/1 from November 15th 2010 to November 15th 2013 and grant number K021201/1 from November 16th 2013) to the European Bioinformatics Institute and Rothamsted Research (from July 2010-July 2013).
