- " Drosophila Information Service is a journal devoted to disseminating information useful to researchers, teachers, and students. Each issue contains descriptions of new techniques, research reports, new mutants, teaching exercises, summaries of recent regional and national conferences, and general announcements of interest to the research community."

- includes phylogeny, sequenced species, tools, nomenclature, reference materials, model organisms, video tutorials, archives, news, etc.

- a project contributed by both researchers and students
- "a platform to explore expression patterns of developmentally relevant genes in Drosophila embryogenesis. It contains a unique digital library of standardized images capturing the expression of thousands of genes at different developmental stages."

- e.g. honeybee, bacteria, grasses, frogs, round worms, rats, etc.

- "The goal of the modENCODE project is to provide the biological research community with a comprehensive encyclopedia of genomic functional elements in the model organisms C. elegans and D. melanogaster."
- chromatin structure

- "This is a full text search engine for fly literature, in collaboration with Flybase www.flybase.org."
- "developed by Hans-Michael Muller with contributions from Arun Rangarajan and Tracy K. Teal." with grants from the National Human Genome Research Institute.
