Genome sequence information for buffalo species is available in bits and pieces in public domain. Limited efforts have been made to consolidate the available information of this genome. Consolidated information could be used for exploring uniqueness of this species and permit improvement in production traits. Sufficient amount of information is also available at National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). But currently limited facility is available to access the outcomes of buffalo genetic research in an interactive format. In addition, there hardly exists any specific genome browser to display diverse collection of annotations on buffalo genome. Keeping this in view, the objectives are as follows
Objective I
To design and populate a database on buffalo genome sequence information.
Objective II
To develop visual interface for annotation of sequence information on genome.
