Abstract

1) To create databases of gene functional associations based on a variety of data sources for Arabidopsis and for the Apicomplexan parasites, and make these accessible to the associated research communities as web services. 2) To develop, compare and optimise machine learning-based methods to combine evidence from the sources above in prediction problems related to biomolecular networks, including missing enzymes in metabolic networks. 3) To make the results methods and predicted biomolecular networks available to the research community as web services.
