Caenorhabditis elegans Genomic Resources

Caenorhabditis Genetics Center - The CGC acquires, maintains and distributes genetic stocks of Caenorhabditis elegans for use by investigators initiating or continuing research on this nematode. The CGC's collection of more than 2000 strains includes one allele of each mapped gene, all available chromosome rearrangements, and selected multiply mutant stocks for genetic mapping. Requests for strains should include a brief statement of the research or training activity for which the stocks are intended. Recipients are asked to acknowledge the CGC, which is supported by NIH's National Center for Research Resources, in publications resulting from use of the strains and to provide the CGC with reprints of those publications. The CGC also provides information about C. elegans, largely through the publication and distribution of a newsletter, the Worm Breeder's Gazette.

A Caenorhabditis elegans DataBase - C. elegans Genome Database - Containing data from the Caenorhabditis Genetics Center (funded by the NIH National Center for Research Resources), the C. elegans genome project (funded by the MRC and NIH), and the worm community. Contacts: Mary O'Callaghan (moc@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk) and Richard Durbin

Caenorhabditis elegans WWW Server at UTSW - This server is the storehouse for C. elegans information on the internet. Included are job postings, FAQs, and genetic information all related to C. elegans research.
