The WWW Virtual Library: Model Organisms E. coli S. cerevisiae Dictyostelium C.elegans ... Others This site is a catalog of internet resources relating to biological model organisms, and is part of the Biosciences area of the Virtual Library project. Other organisms are listed under the Virtual Library sections for Genetics and Developmental Biology To comment on the site or suggest links, please contact the maintainer . If you would like to take over responsibility for a specific Model Organism, please contact the Virtual Library. What is a Model Organism? Many aspects of biology are similar in most or all organisms, but it is frequently much easier to study particular aspects in particular organisms - for instance, genetics is easier in small organisms that breed quickly, and very difficult in humans! The most popular model organisms have strong advantages for experimental research, and become even more useful when other scientists have already worked on them, discovering techniques, genes and other useful information. General Model Organism Resources There is little on the web regarding model organisms in general, but some of the better resources are:

83. Comparative Placentation > Dr. K. Benirschke Provides an examination and evaluation of placenta from many different types of mammals. Includes glossary, taxonomy and biography of author, maintained by the University of California, San Diego. http://medicine.ucsd.edu/cpa/

Welcome! This Volume of animal placentas was created to assist with the examination and evaluation of the many different types of mammalian placentas. It is primarily directed to the veterinary pathologist, the zoo veterinarians and others who have an interest in understanding the bewildering variety of placental forms. When new placentas are added or new information comes about, the new date will appear at the bottom of this page. I endeavor here to bring gradually all major animal species as I acquire the specimens. If new material is brought to my attention, I will incorporate this and welcome any possible material provided for these pages. You may email me directly at kbenirsc@ucsd.edu Before you begin, please note that clicking on most of the thumbnail images will open a new browser window with a larger version of the same image (To see an example of this, click on my image above.)

Developmental Biology Home Research groups Sander van den Heuvel Mike Boxem Inge The Members ... Links About us Developmental Biology is a research division of the Biology department of the Faculty of Science at Utrecht University. The division is led by Prof. Dr. Sander van den Heuvel, and is home to several research groups that share a common interest in the development of multicellular organisms. Sander van den Heuvel studies the regulation of cell division in the context of animal development. Research topics in the group include asymmetric cell division, the control of cell-cycle entry, and the regulation of differentiation vs. proliferation. C. elegans is the main model system used for these studies, with less frequent use of mammalian tissue culture systems. Mike Boxem addresses the establishment of cell polarity through a combination of systematic protein interaction mapping and in vivo studies in C. elegans studies basic questions regarding the control of spermatogonial stem cell divisions in Zebrafish, as well as applied questions on the reproduction of commercial fish including Salmon and Cod. Inge The studies the regulation of cell proliferation vs. differentiation in collaboration with the group of Sander van den Heuvel.

As a prerequisite, the genes that are used by wild plants and animals to create phenotypic diversity need to be defined. By integrating a mechanistic understanding of genetic networks with an understanding of the adaptive significance of trait variation, it should be possible to identify functionally divergent alleles in natural populations. This knowledge can be used to understand the genetic mechanisms underlying adaptive change, and to predict the performance of natural populations under changing environmental conditions.
