The FlyBase Drosophila genetics database and the public interfaces of the
Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project (BDGP) and European Drosophila Genome
Project (EDGP) are in the process of integrating. At present, the data of
these projects are available from independent, but hyperlinked, WWW sites
(FlyBase URL, http://flybase. bio.indiana.edu/; BDGP URL,
http://fruitfly.berkeley.edu/; EDGP URL, http://edgp.ebi.ac.uk/ ). Because
of the considerable overlap of data classes between the contributions of
the Drosophila genome projects and the Drosophila community, the new and
enlarged FlyBase consortium views the implementation of a single integrated
Drosophila genomics/genetics server as essential to the scientific
community. This integration will occur in a stepwise fashion over the next
1-2 years. In this report, the salient features of the current databases
and how to interrogate and navigate the extensive data sets are discussed.
