This project is a 5-year collaborative effort between the Fiehn laboratory and environmental health researchers (Kent Pinkerton, CHE at UC Davis and Jesse Joad, UC Davis Medical School) to characterize the development of asthmatic-type respiratory malfunctions in newborn and young adult rats, caused by environmental tobacco smoke (ETS).
Diagnosis and prediction of individual responses of human patients to pharmaceutical drugs (NIH GM078233 and ARRA RC2)
Welcome to Arex, which stores genome-wide (Affymetrix microarray) and gene-specific (in situ, GFP-reporter, etc.) Arabidopsis spatial gene expression data. Currently, Arex only stores data from the root, but we wish to include data from other organs in the future. Use the various types of searches below to search through our database, or use the Database menu on the left to browse.
There is no need to register to browse publicly accessible data. You will need to register first, however, to be able to enter data or view restricted access data, or to be informed of future developments by email.
Please see the About page for more information about the database.

The Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre (NASC) provides seed and information resources to the International Arabidopsis Genome Programme and the wider research community.
It was established in April 1991 as part of the Plant Molecular Biology initiative of the Agricultural and Food Research Council (AFRC). It is based in the Plant Science Division of the School of Biosciences at the University of Nottingham, Sutton Bonington Campus, UK. Maps of the campus and directions to get here are available. The Centre is funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), the EU and the University of Nottingham.
The Stock Centre is managed by Sean May.
NASC’s activities are coordinated with those of the Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center, (ABRC) based at Ohio State University, USA. This facilitates a unified and efficient service for the research community.
The stock centres have a distribution agreement. NASC distributes to Europe and ABRC distributes to North America. Laboratories in other locations may establish their primary affiliation with either centre.

The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR) maintains a database of genetic and molecular biology data for the model higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana . Data available from TAIR includes the complete genome sequence along with gene structure, gene product information, metabolism, gene expression, DNA and seed stocks, genome maps, genetic and physical markers, publications, and information about the Arabidopsis research community. Gene product function data is updated every two weeks from the latest published research literature and community data submissions. Gene structures are updated 1-2 times per year using computational and manual methods as well as community submissions of new and updated genes. TAIR also provides extensive linkouts from our data pages to other Arabidopsis resources.
The Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center at The Ohio State University collects, reproduces, preserves and distributes seed and DNA resources of Arabidopsis thaliana and related species. Stock information and ordering for the ABRC are fully integrated into TAIR.
