| The Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project (BDGP) is a consortium of the Drosophila Genome Center (funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute, National Cancer Institute, and the Department of Energy), and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (through its support of work in the Gerald Rubin, Allan Spradling, Roger Hoskins, Hugo Bellen, Susan Celniker, and Gary Karpen laboratories). The Drosophila Heterochromatin Genome Project is part of th Drosophila Genome Center (DGC) located at the Lawrence Berkeley National Labaratory in Berkeley, CA. The DHGP is also funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute. |
