PlantCyc [ More Information ] [ Content Statistics ]

PlantCyc provides access to manually curated or reviewed information about shared and unique metabolic pathways present in over 350 plant species.

PMN Single-species/taxon Databases

The PMN also provides access to manually curated and/or computationally predicted information about enzymes, pathways, and more for individual species.

External Plant Metabolic Databases

Several additional species-specific databases, generated by PMN collaborators, are maintained and hosted at external sites. Some of the data from these databases have been incorporated into PlantCyc. Please click on the links below to access those databases directly, and read our Release Notes to learn about the content from external databases included in PlantCyc.

The PMN is funded by the National Science Foundation (Grant #: 1546838, 1026003 and 0640769) and the Department of Energy (BER Grant #:  ER65472), governed by an Editorial Board composed of internationally renowned scientists, and executed at the Carnegie Institution for Science, Department of Plant Biology.
