PhyloGenes is a web resource that displays pre-computed phylogenetic trees of gene families alongside experimental gene function data to facilitate inference of unknown gene function in plants.


PhyloGenes is managed by the nonprofit Phoenix Bioinformatics Corporation. It is co-developed by Phoenix Bioinformatics and the PANTHER project at University of Southern California, and is supported by funding provided by the National Science Foundation (Grant No. DBI-1661543).

Current release (version 3.1)

May 18, 2021. We are pleased to announce the PhyloGenes version 3.1 release.  The gene families and gene trees are from the PANTHER 16.0 release. In PhyloGenes only  genes from plant genomes and selected non-plant model organisms were included. Genes from other genomes in the PANTHER build have been removed (pruned). More stats

Experimental gene function annotations were extracted from the Gene Ontology Consortium (files created on 2021-04-01). Phylogenetic inferred gene function annotations were extracted from the GO PAINT project (files created on 2021-04-01).


Please take a few minutes to share with us your experience of using the PhyloGenes resource.
