PLANEX (http://planex.plantbioinformatics.org) contains publicly available GeneChip data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). PLANEX is a genome-wide co-expression database, which allows for the functional identification of genes from a wide variety of experimental designs. It can be used for the characterization of genes for functional identification and analysis of a gene's dependency among other genes. Gene co-expression databases have been developed for other species, but gene co-expression information for plants is currently limited.\nDESCRIPTION: We constructed PLANEX as a list of co-expressed genes and functional annotations for Arabidopsis thaliana, Glycine max, Hordeum vulgare, Oryza sativa, Solanum lycopersicum, Triticum aestivum, Vitis vinifera and Zea mays. PLANEX reports Pearson's correlation coefficients (PCCs; r-values) that distribute from a gene of interest for a given microarray platform set corresponding to a particular organism. To support PCCs, PLANEX performs an enrichment test of Gene Ontology terms and Cohen's Kappa value to compare functional similarity for all genes in the co-expression database. PLANEX draws a cluster network with co-expressed genes, which is estimated using the k-mean method. To construct PLANEX, a variety of datasets were interpreted by the IBM supercomputer Advanced Interactive eXecutive (AIX) in a supercomputing center.\nCONCLUSION: PLANEX provides a correlation database, a cluster network and an interpretation of enrichment test results for eight plant species. A typical co-expressed gene generates lists of co-expression data that contain hundreds of genes of interest for enrichment analysis. Also, co-expressed genes can be identified and cataloged in terms of comparative genomics by using the 'Co-expression gene compare' feature. This type of analysis will help interpret experimental data and determine whether there is a common term among genes of interest.", "claims": [{"id": "claim-method", "statement": "Cohen’s Kappa statistics were used to compare co-expression data between species [34].", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:23688397", "locator": "sections[8] \"Comparative analysis of co-expressed gene sets\" paragraph 2", "quote": "Cohen’s Kappa statistics were used to compare co-expression data between species [34]."}], "state": "complete"}, {"id": "claim-data-access", "statement": "The serve is freely available athttp://planex.plantbioinformatics.org", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:23688397", "locator": "sections[14] \"Availability and requirements\" paragraph 7", "quote": "The serve is freely available athttp://planex.plantbioinformatics.org"}], "state": "complete"}, {"id": "claim-target-result", "statement": "PLANEX uses Pearson’s correlation coefficients to assess gene co-expression, with source data obtained from publicly available GeneChip datasets in GEO.", "kind": "qualitative", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:23688397", "locator": "sections[0] \"Abstract\" paragraph 1", "quote": "PLANEX (http://planex.plantbioinformatics.org) contains publicly available GeneChip data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)."}, {"asset": "source:pmid:23688397", "locator": "sections[0] \"Abstract\" paragraph 2", "quote": "PLANEX reports Pearson’s correlation coefficients (PCCs; r-values) that distribute from a gene of interest for a given microarray platform set corresponding to a particular organism."}], "state": "complete"}], "gaps": []}, "experiment": {"state": "partial", "objective": "PLANEX uses Pearson’s correlation coefficients to assess gene co-expression, with source data obtained from publicly available GeneChip datasets in GEO.", "steps": [{"id": "read_published_estimate", "order": 1, "name": "Read the published estimate from the source", "kind": "other", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The claim, method and evidence span published with the source article.", "duration_hours": null, "parameters": {}, "inputs": ["source:pmid:23688397"], "outputs": ["the published estimate and its evidence"], "instruments": [], "reagents": []}, {"id": "obtain_source_data", "order": 2, "name": "Obtain the source data from the named repository", "kind": "data-preparation", "state": "blocked", "blocked_on": "data:accession_absent", "description": "The GEO series accession resolves and its sample accessions are listed.
