Abstract: In present days molecular data are available for many plant species which can be analyzed in relation to
taxonomic or evolutionary or affinity context for different plant species. Biological Databases are libraries of life
sciences information, collected from scientific experiments, published literature, high throughput experiment technology,
and computational analyses. Biological databases play a central role in bioinformatics. They offer scientists the
opportunity to access a wide variety of biologically data centrally. Authors have tried to generate preliminary
bioinformatics data for some leguminous tree species. As much as possible of a particular type of information should be
available in one plat form. In short we have made a database which includes all information of leguminous trees which
are found in Anand district in Gujarat state of India, which contains Botanical information of each species and
Bioinformatics information with analysis at one platform. The creation of such kind of database is reflection of
interdisciplinary approach for current era where bioinformatics can play major role for botanical database. Which is
further extended by developing bioinformatics database and placed all such relevant information on a wide platform for
community in general as well as for scientific society in particular.

INTRODUCTION
Biological Databases are libraries of life
sciences information, collected from scientific
experiments, published literature, high throughput
experiment technology, and computational analyses
[20]. Biological databases play a central role in
bioinformatics. They offer scientists the opportunity to
access a wide variety of biologically data centrally. As
much as possible of a particular type of information
should be available in one single place (book, site, and
database). Published data may be difficult to find or
access and collecting it from the literature is very time-
consuming. Bioinformatics is considered as
computational branch of molecular biology. This has
been used by various people of different fields in their
own context. Plant taxonomists are also one of them.
This has been considering as one more doors towards
modern trends in exploring plant taxonomy [5]. In
present days molecular data are available for many
plant species which can be analyzed in relation to
taxonomic or evolutionary or affinity context for
different plant species. Authors have tried to generate
preliminary bioinformatics data for some leguminous
tree species found in Anand district of Gujarat state in
India which include total 31 tree species of
Leguminosae family (Fig.1) [1-5, 8].
Leguminosae family is further divided into 3
subfamilies, namely, 1) Fabaceae (Papilionoideae), 2)
Caesalpinioideae and 3) Mimosoideae [1,18].
METHODS
This database is divided into two parts. First
part includes only botanical information of 31 tree
species[1-2, 8], where as second part comprises of
Bioinformatics section which includes all the
information of each tree species whose data are
deposited in respective database. Database creation was
done with the help of Macromedia- dreamweaver MX –
Software and formatting was done with html web page
creation feature of this software. In this database,
analysis was done with respective data of tree species
DNA, PROTEIN sequences which are deposited in
various biological databases [15-17]. Analysis was done
for all tree species and such 330 results placed in
different section.
Information were collected for 31 tree species
with respect to its general description, taxonomical
