Sumario:Sesame is one of the oldest oil crops in the world and is widely grown in the tropical and subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and America. Upon the completion of the sesame reference genome version 1.0, we launched Sinbase 1.0 as an integrated database for genomic and bioinformatics analyses. Recently, an upgraded version (version 2.0) of the genome sequence was released. In addition, large numbers of multi-omics data have been generated on sesame, but a comprehensive database that integrates these resources for the community has been lacking until now. Here, we developed an interactive and comprehensive sesame multi-omics database, Sinbase 2.0, which provides information of the sesame updated genome containing 13 chromosomes, 3 genetic linkage maps, 5 intra- and 6 inter-species comparative genomics, 1 genomic variation analysis, 5 transcriptome data, 1 proteome, 31 functional markers, 175 putative functional genes, and 54 QTLs detected for important agronomic traits. Moreover, Sinbase 2.0 has been enriched with novel user-friendly computational tools. All datasets of Sinbase 2.0 can be downloaded online conveniently. Sinbase 2.0 will be updated regularly with new available sesame multi-omics data and can be accessed freely via Sinbase 2.—Sesame Muti-Omics Database. We expect that Sinbase 2.0, similarly to the previous version, will continue to make a major contribution to advance sesame research towards a better understanding of its biology and genetic improvement, as well as comparative genomics and evolutionary biology.
