Abstract

Plants produce various proteins to overcome biotic and abiotic stresses. Current plant stress databases report plant genes without protein annotations specific to these stresses. To date, according to our findings, a unique plant stress protein database for both biotic and abiotic stresses is not available explicitly for plant biologists that describe linking out to other related databases. This need initiated us to formulate a distinctive database that includes important resources for stress-based factors. We developed the Plant Stress Protein Database (PSPDB), a web-accessible resource that covers 2,064 manually curated plant stress proteins from a wide array of 134 plant species with 30 different types of biotic and abiotic stresses. Functional and experimental validation of proteins associated with biotic and abiotic stresses has been employed as the sole criterion for inclusion in the database. The database is available at http://www.bioclues.org/pspdb/.
