The document discusses bioinformatics at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA). It defines bioinformatics and describes the large amount of biological data that is now available, including sequences, structures, and expressions. It then outlines IITA's bioinformatics resources, including personnel, computing hardware, and software tools for analyzing different types of biological data like genotyping by sequencing (GBS) and RNA sequencing. Specific IITA projects involving the analysis of cassava, yam, and other crop sequencing data are also mentioned.
