Repetitive sequence database for C. elegans

[Pankaj Agarwal]

A database of repetitive DNA sequence in the nematode C. elegans is
available for querying.

http://ibc.wustl.edu/rpt/elegans

The repeat elements were identified and classified using the Repeat
Pattern Toolkit. The dataset used was 3.67 million bases of almost
contiguous DNA sequence from chromosome III.
