Andere Datenbanken und weitere Ressourcen zur Taxonomie und Systematik

  • Angiosperm Phylogeny Website, by P. F. Stevens, University of Missouri, St Louis, and Missouri Botanical Garden.
     

  • The INSDC (International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration) comprises the DNA Database of Japan (DDBJ), the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), and GenBank at NCBI (USA). These three organizations collect portions of the total sequence data reported worldwide, and all new and updated database entries are exchanged between them on a daily basis. "INSDC covers the spectrum of data raw reads, though alignments and assemblies to functional annotation, enriched with contextual information relating to samples and experimental configurations."
     

  • Phylogeny programms  listed by Joe Felsenstein, Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle. "194 of the phylogeny packages, and 16 free servers, that I know about. It is an attempt to be completely comprehensive. ... The programs listed include both free and non-free ones; in some cases I do not know whether a program is free. I have listed as free those that I knew were free; for the others you have to ask their distributor."

Search forms allow to query the database in any combination of pollen grain characters, including images and literature. Moreover, a number of print-outs are available, e.g., standardized pollen grain description of each taxon, literature and/or images to each genus, a key to a selected family, herbarium labels".  – Photopal  "is an interactive bank of digital images of modern pollen grains and of their morphological description realized from modern pollen banks (Montpellier, Paris, Lyon, Stockholm, ..) with the help of the C.N.R.S. ( INSU), the Ministère de l'Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche, the Elf Company, the Lyon 1 and Montpellier 2 Universities."

The collections also include the library of Linnaeus (some 1600 volumes) and around 3000 letters and manuscripts.It is the Linnean Society's aim to make available its primary research material in digital formats to support taxonomic and conservation efforts worldwide as well as providing public pleasure and enjoyment."
     

  • Index Herbariorum, "a joint project of the International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) and The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG), is a detailed directory of 3,220+ public herbaria of the world and the 9,775+ staff members associated with them. Included in the on-line edition of Index Herbariorum is information for 3,240+ herbaria in 165 countries and 9,869+ staff members associated with these herbaria. Information for over 80% of the herbaria has been updated, and 581 herbaria have been added since the eighth edition of INDEX HERBARIORUM.Information is available for searching by institution, city, state, acronym, staff member, correspondent, and research specialty. Telephone and fax numbers and e-mail and URL addresses are included. The Index is fully searchable on research specialty, so it also serves as a PLANT SPECIALISTS INDEX."
