The Global Oceanographic Data Center (GODAC) collected pictures of marine organisms around the coral reefs in the Ryukyu Islands from citizen divers during 2002 to 2013. GODAC also collected videos through GODAC’s research activities using a small remotely-operated vehicle “Niraikanai 150”. These image collection of the pictures and videos had been published on the website of Coral Reef Network WEB System (http://www.godac.jp/coral/). The image collection can become a valuable snapshot to know a past fauna or flora in the Ryukyu Island. The metadata of images provided to the system is used to extract scientific names and locations (latitude and longitude), which are then organized as biological occurrence records and published in BISMaL, a database for marine biodiversity information (http://www.godac.jamstec.go.jp/bismal/).

The Mutant Panel is a database of rice (Nipponbare) Tos17 insertion mutant lines. These lines were created by activation of the endogenous retrotransposon Tos17. This database enables users to search sequences adjacent to the transposon, as well as strain names from the results of PCR screening using a three-dimensional DNA pool.

The title of Asteraceae “Index to Chromosome numbers in Asteraceae” has been used for the representative of families in Asterales due to the largest and most familiar for many researchers. It is included the published data of all members in whole of Asterales, instead of being restricted to just members of Asteraceae: Alangiaceae, Alseuosmiaceae, Argophyllaceae, Calyceraceae, Campanulaceae, Carpodetaceae, Goodeniaceae, Menyanthaceae, Pentaphragmataceae, Phellinaceae, Rousseaceae, Stylidiaceae (all of them are placed in Asterales at present “2021, December"). This Database includes taxon name, chromosome number (n and 2n), DNA contents, genbank accession numbers (for the nuclear or chloroplast DNA sequences：You can know that taxa used for molecular phylogenetic analyses), habit (life form) and size of plant, reproductive system, collection locality (Nation), Author (s) and the title of paper and published journal names.
　　The classification of the Asteraceae (= Compositae) follows on Susanna, A. et al (2020) is followed in this database.　Sixteen subfamilies (Barnadesioideae, Famatinanthioideae, Stifftioideae, Mutisioideae, Gochnatioideae, Wunderlichioideae, Hacastocleideideae, Perytyoideae, Tarchonanthoideae, Dicomoideae, Carduoideae, Gymnarrhenoideae, Vernonioideae, Cichorioideae, Corymboideae, Asteroideae.) + 49 tribes + 116 subtribes are included.
