This paper presents the latest update to the Plant rDNA database (Release 4.0), a valuable resource for researchers in the field of plant cytogenetics. The database provides information on the number, position, and arrangement of ribosomal DNA loci in plants, including angiosperms, gymnosperms, bryophytes, and pteridophytes. The new release includes new data for 820 species coming from additional 173 papers. In the updated version of the Plant rDNA database, 4948 entries comprising 2760 organisms can be found. A brief guide on how to navigate the database and obtain the desired information is also provided. The regular updating of the database is important for ensuring the information it contains is accurate, up-to-date, and useful for the research community. The Plant rDNA database continues to be beneficial for phylogenetic and cytogenetic studies in a wide range of taxa including angiosperms, gymnosperms, and early diverging groups, such as bryophytes and lycophytes.
本文介绍了植物 rDNA 数据库（版本 4.0）的最新更新，这是植物细胞遗传学领域研究人员的宝贵资源。该数据库提供了植物中核糖体 DNA 基因座数量、位置和排列的信息，包括被子植物、裸子植物、苔藓植物和蕨类植物。新版本包括来自另外 173 篇论文的 820 个物种的新数据。在更新后的植物 rDNA 数据库中，可以找到包含 2760 个生物体的 4948 条记录。还提供了一个关于如何浏览数据库和获取所需信息的简要指南。定期更新数据库对于确保其包含的信息准确、最新并对研究社区有用非常重要。植物 rDNA 数据库继续为包括被子植物、裸子植物和早期分化类群（如苔藓植物和石松植物）在内的广泛分类群的系统发育和细胞遗传学研究提供帮助。
