The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR)
@tairnews
We've been supporting the scientific community since 1999, community supported since 2014. Part of @phoenixbio.bsky.social. #PlantScience #PlantBiology #Arabidopsis #Databases
#plantbio2026 Heading back home. Thanks for a great meeting, @aspbofficial.bsky.social and CSPB. It was great to see a bit of Ottawa. 🇨🇦
#plantbio2026 having fun sharing information about @agbiodata.bsky.social resources
#plantbio2026 TAIR’s first director, Sue Rhee, now at Michigan State University speaks on what her lab has learned about Arabidopsis RHM1, part of a new metabolic biocondensate, with a role in rhamnose synthesis @rheelab.bsky.social
#plantbio2026 My luggage finally made it! @tairnews.bsky.social swag and I are at the @agbiodata.bsky.social booth. Stop by and chat!
#plantbio2026 What a great group of collaborators - Marcela Tello-Ruiz, Asher Pasha, Doreen Ware, Pankaj Jaiswal, Tanya Berardini, Olivia Haley, Sunita Kumari - and this is just a tiny slice of the consortium @agbiodata.bsky.social @bar-plantbio.bsky.social @tairnews.bsky.social
#plantbio2026 Olivia Haley rounds things out with news from MaizeGDB focusing on metadata, identifiers, open source data and protocols
#plantbio2026 Pankaj Jaiswal on Plant Reactome and Planteome “we share resources, we all work together” [in AgBioData]
#plantbio2026 Doreen Ware shares the basics of Sorghumbase, highlighting interoperability, cool pangenome views
#plantbio2026 Asher Pasha from @bar-plantbio.bsky.social with the latest from BAR including GAIA and new eFP browsers (barley, Arabidopsis guard cells)
#plantbio2026 Marcela Tello-Ruiz with a look back at @agbiodata.bsky.social ‘s history and contributions in the area of data sharing and FAIR data standards, followed by a look into future efforts
Join @agbiodata.bsky.social and TAIR for the workshop "Plant Bioinformatics Resources for FAIR Agricultural Data Discovery and Reuse" later this month at #PlantBiology2026 hosted by @aspbofficial.bsky.social! 🧪 See you in Ottawa! #plantbiology #plantscience #TAIR #Arabidopsis
#icar2026 wraps up. Our hosts in Singapore 🇸🇬 have been gracious and generous. Thank you for welcoming us to your beautiful country. 🙏💕
After #icar2026, the meeting returns to Madison, Wisconsin in the US for #icar2027. @naascarabidopsis.bsky.social
