Posted 3 October 2002
Anopheles Genome Poster

Science's 4 October 2002 special issue on the genome of Anopheles gambiae included a wall chart on the malaria mosquito's genome and its significance. For convenient Web browsing, Science Functional Genomics has put together an enhanced version of the poster, including embedded links to some online resources and articles connected with presentation. To find the embedded links, just move your mouse pointer over the text and images in the presentation. (Some pages may take a moment to load, so please be patient.)

We've broken the poster's presentation into nine panels. The first two panels provide overview information on the Anopheles sequence and what it means for the fight against malaria. Panels 3 through 8 provide a chromosome-by-chromosome sampling of the physical map, with links to relevant sections of the Ensembl Anopheles database. And panel 9 looks at Anophelene gene expression and its possible implications for insect control.

To get started, just click on one of the links below. You can step through the presentation sequentially using the "Forward" and "Back" arrows on the pages that follow. Clicking the "Top" button, or the "Anopheles gambiae" logo on the images themselves, will bring you back to this index page.

Note: The presentation in these pages should function well for browsers higher than Netscape 2.0; enabling JavaScript is recommended for best results, but is not required. The presentation will work best for monitors set at 800x600 resolution or higher. A downloadable PDF version of the poster (1.6 MB) is available here.
