The Interactive Fly - a cyberspace guide to Drosophila development and metazoan evolution - was first released July/August 1996, with updates provided at approximately one month intervals, through September 1997 (edition 13). Updating quarterly started with edition 14. With edition 40, the Interactive Fly began to schedule updates three times a year: fall, winter and spring. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
FlyView is an image database on Drosophila development and genetics, especially on expression patterns of genes (enhancer trap lines, cloned genes). Our aim is to establish the possibility to compare images on the computer screen and to search for special patterns at different developmental stages. FlyView presents three possibilities for searching: Search for pattern elements (with keywords in text descriptions, getting back images with links to the appropriate stocks), search for stocks (with stock number, allele, genotype, chromosome, insertion site, viability, developmental stage or expression pattern, getting back a list of found stocks that guide to full descriptions (including links to images, e-mail address for ordering and, in the case of BDGP lines, also direct links to FlyBase and/or EofD)) and Overview (an actual list of all lines included in FlyView, linked to stock descriptions and images). The success of this database exclusively depends on the activity of the Drosophila community. All Drosophila workers are asked to contribute to this database by submitting images and accompanying text. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
This database presents the current results of large scale protein trapping screens that provide both information on which cells express each tagged gene, and subcellular localization of GFP-tagged proteins. It contains sequence coordinates of inserted transposons, information on the tagged genes, and images with expression patterns of GFP in Drosophila tissues. FlyTrap serves as the data repository for lines generated in the Chia, Cooley, and Spradling labs. The protein trap stocks listed in FlyTrap are available for distribution. ...

This collection of sections through zebrafish embryos at four different stages of development is thought to provide some help to understand how the zebrafish embryo looks inside. Thin section in Araldite were stained with methylene blue. Images were taken and digitized. You will find an overview image for each stage, with links (click at numbers on image) to images of the sections. You can also download high resolution images (JPEG, about 1 MB), which in most cases are good enough to zoom in down to the level of individual cell nuclei. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Ambystoma Genetic Stock Center is a self-sustaining, breeding colony of the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) supported by the National Science Foundation as a Living Stock Collection under the Division of Biological Infrastructure (DBI) and located in the Department of Biology at the University of Kentucky. The AGSC is a genetic stock center dedicated to the supply of genetically well-characterized axolotl embryos, larvae, and adults to laboratories and classrooms throughout the United States and abroad. ...

The internet Primate Aging Database (iPAD) is a multi-centered, relational database of biological variables in aging, captive nonhuman primates. Through joint initiative of the National Institute on Aging (intramural and extramural programs), National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), and the National Primate Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (WNPRC), we have organized a database to study biomarkers of aging in nonhuman primates. iPAD also provides an invaluable veterinary and clinical resource, and can generate normative data for numbers of animals across research settings. iPAD now contains over 400,000 data points for body weight, blood chemistry and hematology, for healthy, non-experimental subjects across time. ...

LarvalBase is a comprehensive information system on fish larvae that are relevant in the field of fisheries research and finfish aquaculture, combining traditional sources such as primary and “grey” literature. In addition, data from various sources as Internet and e.g. from practising aquaculturists, even in developing countries, are considered to be valuable for the database. (...) The LarvalBase-Project was started in the beginning of 1998 in close conjunction with FishBase, the largest data base on finfish worldwide (FishBase). However, FishBase holds little information on ichthyoplankton and lacks detailled data on fish larvae identification and rearing. The LarvalBase-Project aimed close these gaps. ...

With increasing interest in organogenesis, tissue maintenance and integrity, and the use of zebrafish as a model for human disease, researchers are studying processes that extend further into the larval period. Despite many years of use as a model system an anatomical reference for larval zebrafish does not exist. In order to provide such a resource we developed FishNet an online anatomical reference for zebrafish larval development. Using the technique of optical projection tomography (OPT) (described in Bryson-Richardson and Currie 2004) we have created three- dimensional (3D) models of larval zebrafish from 5 mm to adulthood. Once a 3D model has been created it may be virtually sectioned in any plane or rendered to give a representation of the 3D organization of the sample. ... [Information of the supplier]
Planarians are free-living (non-parasitic) freshwater organisms possessing derivatives of all three germ layers (i.e., ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm). These animals are renowned for their developmental plasticity and have attracted the attention of generations of biologists (http://planaria.neuro.utah.edu). Among all flatworm species studied thus far, the planarian Schmidtea mediterranea is rapidly emerging as a key model organism for the study of regeneration, tissue homeostasis and stem cell biology. The Schmidtea mediterranea Genome Database (SmedGD) is a GMOD compliant database that integrates in a single web-accessible portal all available data associated with the planarian genome, including predicted and annotated genes, ESTs, protein homologies, gene expression patterns and RNAi phenotypes. ...
