What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 14, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• legume_family

  Members of an LIS legume gene family across chickpea, lentil, pea, soybean and Medicago truncatula. gene: a chickpea/lentil/pea/Medicago gene ID, a soybean Ensembl ID (GLYMA_01G000600) or LIS name (Glyma.01G000600), or a family ID (Legume.fam3.00142). Use it to go from a soybean

• legume_qtl

  QTL and GWAS results for legumes from the Legume Information System: soybean (SoyBase QTL on genetic maps plus GWAS; marker positions on Wm82.a2 = Ensembl glycine_max), common bean (G19833 v1 = Ensembl phaseolus_vulgaris; some GWAS on G19833 v2), cowpea (IT97K-499-35 v1) and pean
