C. elegans and Other Nematodes
C. elegans WWW Server
- Wonderful World of the Worm. Leon Avery at SouthWestern Medical (U T
Dallas) maintains this site, which contains links to all online C. elegans
labs and virtually every other C. elegans link in the virtual world.
Worms on the Web
- Collection of links to C. elegans as well as other nematode sites,
including parasitic nematodes and sites dedicated to phylogenetic issues.
Why
Study This Worm? - A brief introduction to C. elegans from the
Riddle Lab at the University of Missouri, Columbia.
Caenorhabditis
Genetics Center - Comprehensive strain lists and literature database
at the University of Minnesota. Home of the Worm Breeder's Gazette.
GSC Nematode
BLAST Servers - C. elegans and C. briggsae genome BLAST
servers at the Genome Sequencer Center at Washington University
Sanger
Centre C. elegans BLAST Server - C. elegans genome and
EST BLAST server

FlyBase - Drosophila
(fruitfly)
The Interactive
Fly- Guide to Drosophila genes
The Fish Net - zebrafish
The
Zebrafish Book- very useful guide for culture and maintenance of zebrafish
in the lab
Dictyostelium WWW
Server - cellular slime molds
The
World-Wide Web Virtual Library : Yeast - Saccharomyces, Schizosaccharomyces,
Candida
Sea Urchin Embryology-
sea urchins (although not ideal for genetics, great organisms for studying
fertilization); this site is geared more for high school classes but still
worth checking out
Arabinet -
Arabidopsis (small flowering weed popular with plant molecular geneticists)

GenBank- Search the genome databases at the National Center for Biotechnology
Information; use "Entrez Browser" for text searches and the BLAST
server for sequence similarity runs
Genome Sequencing Center at
Washington University - Human, mouse, zebrafish, nematode, Arabidopsis
and yeast genome sequencing
The Sanger Centre - Human, nematode,
yeast and bacterial genome sequencing

The Biology Project
- "An online interactive resource for learning biology" through
the University of Arizona; lots of tutorials and quizzes covering basics
of cell biology and biochemistry; a really good and useful site, particularly
for Bio 21 Cell Biology students!
The MIT
Biology Hypertextbook - Lots of tutorials and links to Cell biology
related topics, like the Krebs Cycle
The Cell - This site
has some useful lessons and quizzes; it's mostly geared toward microbiology
and in fact has what appears to be a "chat room" for microbiologists,
or anyone interested in discussing with others the life of single-celled
creatures (yeah, seems a bit strange to me too).
Virtual Cell
- 3-D representation of a plant cell
Cell
Biology Laboratory Manual - lots of lab protocols (William Heidcamp
at Gustavus Adolphus College)
Cells Alive! - commercial
site, but quite a few neat images
The
Rockefeller University Journey Into the Cell - a brief history of pioneering
work done by Nobel Laureate Albert Claude and other researchers at the
Rockefeller

The MBL - The Marine Biological
Laboratory in Wood's Hole, Massachusetts
National Resource Center for Cephalopods
- NIH-supported research center in Galveston, Texas
The Cephalopod Page
- very comprehensive site, with lots of cool images of octopuses, squids,
and cuttlefish (created and maintained by James Wood, a grad student at
Dalhousie University)
