Description:
This Program Announcement (PA) is to encourage investigator-initiated
applications for research designed to generate genetic tools and genomic
resources that will enable researchers to exploit the full potential of novel
or developing model systems for comparative and functional genomic studies.
The typical model organism to be considered should have a publicly available
draft of the genomic DNA sequence with a minimum of 5X coverage. In addition,
it should have at least one of the following characteristics: (1) shows
promise as, or is, a model for basic biological or behavioral mechanisms; (2)
occupies an important evolutionary niche that may yield novel insights in
comparative studies; or (3) has potential as, or is, a model for
developmental or disease processes. Applicants are expected to ensure that
reagents, technologies, and resources developed under this initiative are
made widely available to the research community.
