Dear users, We want to ensure that GrainGenes (wheat.pw.usda.gov) and mirror (graingenes.org) sites remain fully secure. To perform our security analyses, we will take both machines offline for an estimated time of a week. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Good news! Although we are still working on wheat.pw.usda.gov, graingenes.org is now available for you to use.

Dear users: we found remnants of malicious code in the server we use to serve graingenes.org, and we will need to shut it down again to get it sanitized to provide you a better service. I apologize for the inconvenience. I will inform you when our systems will be back.

Good news: We just made a soft release at graingenes.org. Not all pages/services are working yet, but most of the stuff are there and we are working on restoring services fully. Wheat Initiative American Malting Barley Association Oat Newsletter

The Economic Research Service charts sobering decline in barley use & beer production. Right-sizing our industry is more important than ever. Opportunity exists to grow other barley uses because any barley in the field - even livestock feed or human food - is good barley. ers.usda.gov/data-products/…

Great work by Elly Poretsky (Carson Andorf and Taner Sen). It was highly satisfying to see its impact right away, when Pfam, which is often used in functional prediction pipelines, has already harnessed this study’s outcomes to improve its domain assignments.
