The World Wide Web Agricultural Genome Information Server (AGIS) consists of genome information for agriculturally important organisms. At present, this encompasses mostly crop and livestock animal species. Also included are a number of databases that have related information, e.g. germplasm and plant gene nomenclature data. This server is provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Agricultural Library's Genome Informatics Group (GIG) in Beltsville, Maryland.
