CerealsDB (www.cerealsdb.uk.net) is an online repository of mainly hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and genotyping data. The CerealsDB website has been designed to enable wheat breeders and scientists to select the appropriate markers for research breeding tasks, such as marker-assisted selection. We report a large update of genotyping information for over 6000 wheat accessions and describe new webtools for exploring and visualizing the data. We also describe a new database of quantitative trait loci that links phenotypic traits to CerealsDB SNP markers and allelic scores for each of those markers. CerealsDB is an open-access website that hosts information on wheat SNPs considered useful for both plant breeders and research scientists. The latest CerealsDB database is available at https://www.cerealsdb.uk.net/cerealgenomics/CerealsDB/indexNEW.php.

Article Synopsis
  • Managing stray cats in urban areas, particularly in Australia, involves significant challenges, with many being euthanized. The Australian Pet Welfare Foundation evaluated a free sterilization program in Ipswich, focusing on cat ownership practices and sterilization rates compared to dogs.
  • A study with 343 participants revealed that while a majority (91%) of cat owners sterilized their pets, only 74% of younger cats were sterilized, highlighting gaps in community awareness and practices.
  • The findings indicate a strong need for community initiatives to increase cat sterilization and ownership, improve containment practices, and enhance public education on stray cat management to promote animal welfare overall.
