GMOD (the Generic Model Organism Database project), is a collection of open source software tools for creating and managing genome-scale biological databases. GMOD tools are in use at many large and small community databases, especially for Model Organisms. The include the genome browser GBrowse, the CHADO relational database, the GFF annotation databases, and much more The goal is to free developers of community scale biomolecualr databases from reinventing the wheel. A good overview of resources and principles is available on the GMOD wiki.
