description The availability of a high-quality genome sequence of <i>Brassica campestris</i> ssp. <i>chinensis</i> NHCC001 has paved the way for deep mining of genome data. We used the <i>B. campestris</i> NHCC001 draft genome to develop a comprehensive database, known as the non-heading Chinese cabbage database, which provides access to the <i>B. campestris</i> NHCC001 genome data. The database provides 127,347 SSR, from which 382,041 pairs of primers were designed. NHCCDB contains information on 105,360 genes, which were further classified into 63 transcription factor families. Furthermore, NHCCDB provides eight kinds of tools for biological or sequencing data analyses, including sequence alignment tools, functional genomics tools, comparative genomics tools, motif analysis tools, genome browser, primer design, and SSR analysis tools. In addition, eight kinds of graphs, including a box plot, Venn diagram, corrplot, Q-Q plot, Manhattan plot, seqLogo, volcano plot, and a heatmap, can be generated rapidly using NHCCDB. We have incorporated a search system for efficient mining of transcription factors and genes, along with an embedded data submit function in NHCCDB. We believe that the NHCCDB database will be a useful platform for non-heading Chinese cabbage research and breeding.
