PlanNET v1.2

• Schmidtea mediterranea predicted genes (see: A. Rozanski et al.) as well as their associated transcripts have been included in PlanNET as SmesGene and Smest respectively.
• Smest gene associated transcripts are now available in the BLAST application.
• A new gene card for Smesgenes has been implemented, with information regarding the associated transcripts across different transcriptomes, the genomic location, gene ontologies and predicted protein-protein interactions.
• Several genomic features (such as mapped transcripts over the newly assembled S.med genome) can now be visualized using our new JBrowse plugin.
• PlanExp, a PlanNET plugin for exploring RNA-seq experiments is available for registered users to test.
• Databases are now identified by node border color instead of shape.
• Node shape in NetExplorer and PathwayFinder now refers to the technology used for sequencing, with triangles reserved for "legacy" technologies such as Sanger and 454, and circles for high-throughput RNA-seq.
• General improvements to design and readability of the application.
