The technology for acquiring molecular data about the whole plant kingdom
has progressed, and continues to progress, rapidly. These technologies, and
the resources being generated by large infrastructure projects, should allow
the whole community of plant biologists to gain new insights into the work-
ings of their favorite organisms. The volume of data being generated is
almost overwhelming, and there is a need to ensure that these data remain
available as projects are completed. In addition, the need for informatics will
continue to grow, both in the realm of software to visualize the data and for
the analysis of the data.
