wFleaBase -- the Daphnia genome database
What you can do:
Search and extract information from expressed sequenced tags (ESTs), genome survey sequences and full genome sequencing projects on Daphnia.
Highlights:
- wFleaBase is a database with the necessary infrastructure to curate, archive and share genetic, molecular and functional genomic data and protocols for an emerging model organism, the microcrustacean Daphnia.
- It aims to serve a large ecological and evolutionary research community.
- Preliminary genetic maps and the nearly complete genomic sequence of Daphnia pulex will be integrated into wFleaBase, including gene predictions and ortholog assignments based on sequence similarities with eukaryote genes of known function.
