[Drosophila] New stocks from the Bloomington Duplication Project

[Kevin Cook]

For several years, we have been working on a project to provide 
comprehensive coverage of the X chromosome with Y-linked duplications.  
We have now placed the first 115 duplication stocks from the project 
into the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center collection.  These 
duplications cover ~40% of the X chromosome and are arranged in nested 
sets so that you can use duplications to map X-linked mutations to 
small, molecularly defined chromosomal intervals. A list of the new 
stocks is provided at 
http://flystocks.bio.indiana.edu/Browse/dp/BDSC-Dps.php and an overview 
of the project is presented at
