  abstract = {{B}anana is one of the world's favorite fruits and one of the most important crops for developing countries. {T}he banana reference genome sequence ({M}usa acuminata) was recently released. {G}iven the taxonomic position of {M}usa, the completed genomic sequence has particular comparative value to provide fresh insights about the evolution of the monocotyledons. {T}he study of the banana genome has been enhanced by a number of tools and resources that allows harnessing its sequence. {F}irst, we set up essential tools such as a {C}ommunity {A}nnotation {S}ystem, phylogenomics resources and metabolic pathways. {T}hen, to support post-genomic efforts, we improved banana existing systems (e.g. web front end, query builder), we integrated available {M}usa data into generic systems (e.g. markers and genetic maps, synteny blocks), we have made interoperable with the banana hub, other existing systems containing {M}usa data (e.g. transcriptomics, rice reference genome, workflow manager) and finally, we generated new results from sequence analyses (e.g. {SNP} and polymorphism analysis). {S}everal uses cases illustrate how the {B}anana {G}enome {H}ub can be used to study gene families. {O}verall, with this collaborative effort, we discuss the importance of the interoperability toward data integration between existing information systems.},
