Welcome to the Drosophila Genome Resources guide. Whole genome sequences are now available for 12 Drosophila genomes, supported by funding from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). This gateway page will bring together information on Drosophila-related resources from NCBI and the fruit fly research community.
We encourage your suggestions.

Just In...
D. melanogaster Map Viewer Update: NCBI's Map Viewer now displays D. melanogaster Release 5.2, with 15,182 genes annotated and linked through unique identifiers to FlyBase. The genome can be viewed in a chromosomal context with gene annotation, UniGene clusters and gene predictions alongside the genetic map and ideogram. Links are also available to HomoloGene and Model Maker.
D. pseudoobscura genome now in Map Viewer: FlyBase Release 2.0 of the D. pseudoobscura genome is now available for display in NCBI's Map Viewer, with links to FlyBase. The genome can be viewed in a chromosomal context with gene annotations, Gnomon gene predictions, and homologous D. melanogaster transcripts.
The Latest Buzz: Ten additional Drosophila genomes have been sequenced and annotated. These genomes can currently be viewed using the FlyBase Genome Browser.
