- The WWW Virtual Library: Model Organisms A guide to internet resources for research on biological model organisms (part of the WWW Virtual Library).
- Amphibian Embryology Tutorial Very nice graphical supplement for teaching & learning about amphibian development (from the University of Wisconsin).
- MRC HGU Mouse Atlas and Gene Expression "The UK MRC Human Genetics Unit in Edinburgh is developing a digital atlas of mouse development and database to be a resource for spatially mapped data such as in situ gene expression and cell lineage. The project is in collaboration with the Department of Anatomy, University of Edinburgh. The gene expression database is being developed as part of the Mouse Gene Expression Information Resource (MGEIR) in collaboration with the Jackson Laboratory, USA."
- The WWW Virtual Library: Dictyostelium Section of the WWW Virtual Library devoted to the cell biology and genetics of the cellular slime mold (Dictyostelium discoideum).
- TBASE Since development of the technology to manipulate the germline of animals over a decade ago, a large number of transgenic animals have been produced worldwide for use in both basic and applied research. Additionally, development of gene targeting protocols involving homologous recombination in mouse embryonic stem cells has resulted in a considerable number of mutant lines with specific phenotypes and well-defined DNA structural changes. TBASE is an attempt to organize information on transgenic animals and targeted mutations generated and analyzed worldwide.
- Sea Urchin Embryology This is a site devoted to the interaction of a leading lab at Stanford University, under Dr. David Epel, with high school science teachers.
- The WWW Virtual Library: Xenopus This site contains a collection of Xenopus molecular markers for use in immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, Xenopus stages, methods and other useful information on early amphibian development (part of the WWW Virtual Library).
- Virtual Flylab An educational application for learning the principles of genetic inheritance. An excellent resource for students.
- Axolotol Colony Indiana University's Axolotl Colony is a breeding colony of the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) supported by the National Science Foundation.
- UrchiNet The database contains information on molecular mechanisms of embryogenesis in sea urchin.
