Abstract
In this chapter, we introduce the main components of the Legume Information System ( https://legumeinfo.org ) and several associated resources. Additionally, we provide an example of their use by exploring a biological question: is there a common molecular basis, across legume species, that underlies the photoperiod-mediated transition from vegetative to reproductive development, that is, days to flowering? The Legume Information System (LIS) holds genetic and genomic data for a large number of crop and model legumes and provides a set of online bioinformatic tools designed to help biologists address questions and tasks related to legume biology. Such tasks include identifying the molecular basis of agronomic traits; identifying orthologs/syntelogs for known genes; determining gene expression patterns; accessing genomic datasets; identifying markers for breeding work; and identifying genetic similarities and differences among selected accessions. LIS integrates with other legume-focused informatics resources such as SoyBase ( https://soybase.org ), PeanutBase ( https://peanutbase.org ), and projects of the Legume Federation ( https://legumefederation.org ).Entities:
