Drosophila resources

Here are some web resources relating to the genetics of Drosophila, the fruit fly:

Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project

Drosophila Heterochromatin Genome Project

Ensembl

Flybase

Homophila (thanks to Max Casu for drawing this to my attention) - compares human and fly genomes. Care with spelling if typing in the URL!

Interactive Fly - this has an A-Z index of genes

NCBI Entrez , perhaps in particular: Gene; Nucleotide; SNP; Taxonomy. Gene searches Flybase (see above) and provides links to PubMed

NCBI Map Viewer, graphical view of the D. melanogaster genome

WWW Virtual Library: Drosophila

Something that can be added to this list is the Drosophila melanogaster Peptide Atlas (http://www.mop.uzh.ch/drosophila-peptideatlas/cgi/PeptideAtlas/main.cgi), a fly proteome and genome database described at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/10/59.
