As one of the first model organism knowledgebases, Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) has been supporting the scientific research community since 1993. As technologies and research evolve, so does SGD: from updates in software architecture, to curation of novel data types, to incorporation of data from, and collaboration with, other knowledgebases. We are continuing to make steps toward providing the community with an S. cerevisiae pan-genome. Here, we describe software upgrades, a new nomenclature system for genes not found in the reference strain, and additions to gene pages. With these improvements, we aim to remain a leading resource for students, researchers, and the broader scientific community.
