C’est très Fourmidable
Us working with ants just love to have plenty of databases and digital content available at a click of a button to assist in our malevolent plan to turn these vicious little creatures against humanity.
From Laurent Keller’s laboratory in Switzerland now comes Fourmidable, a web-accessible database for all things related to ant genomics. It is aimed primary at molecular data generated from research into the genetics of social behavior. It currently contains genomic data on two model species, the fire ant Solenopsis invicta and the black garden ant Lasius niger, but it hopes to become a central repository for the curation and management of data from any ant species.
A detailed description of the project has just been published in the open access journal BMC Genomics.
