Summary:
Plant genome sequence information greatly facilitates the studies of plant biology, functional genomics, evolution of genomes and genes, domestication processes, phylogenetic relationships, among many others. More than two decades of sequencing efforts have boosted the number of available sequenced plant genomes. The first plant genome, of Arabidopsis, was published in the year 2000 and currently, 4604 plant genomes from 1482 plant species have been published. Various large sequence initiatives are running, which are planning to produce tens of thousands of sequenced plant genomes in the near future. In this review, we give an overview on the status of sequenced plant genomes and on the use of genome information in different research areas.
