BASF: Utilization of knowledge graphs to consolidate biological context for non-model plants
This video explores BASF's 'Plant Twin' knowledge graph, which integrates omics data, orthology, pathways, and literature to enhance biological understanding of non-model plants.
What it covers
- Plant Twin Overview
BASF's 'Plant Twin' is a knowledge graph designed to consolidate diverse biological data for non-model plant species.
- Data Integration
The graph combines omics data, orthology information, metabolic pathways, and scientific literature to fill knowledge gaps.
- Collaboration with Neo4j
The project was developed in partnership with Neo4j Professional Services to leverage graph database technology.
- Rapid Development
From concept to proof of value, the project was completed in approximately six months.
