Genetics and Biotechnology
BioTech Life Science Resources and Reference Tools - This site is useful to the lay person as well as the research scientists out there. It has a dictionary, "cyberbotanica" which lists the medicinal quality of plants, and lists of other useful science websites.
DNA and the AKC - The American Kennel Club's page for dog breeders.
Human Genome Project Information - Also for information on bioethics and genetics. A best site
Human Genome Resources - Maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, this site, although technical, features "the Genome at a Glance" a diagram of each of the 24 human chromosomes with links and bibliographies to additional information.
Image archive of the American Eugenics Movement - Images and text depicting the history of American Eugenics. This site includes the social and scientific origins, research methods, research flaws, marriage laws, sterilization laws, and immigration restrictions.
Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes - An effort to computerize current knowledge of molecular and cellular biology in terms of the information pathways that consist of interacting molecules or genes and to provide links from the gene catalogs produced by genome sequencing projects.
MendelWeb - MendelWeb is an educational resource for teachers and students interested in the origins of classical genetics, introductory data analysis, elementary plant science, and the history and literature of science. There are extensive essays and reference sources as well as the original text of "Experiments in Plant Hybridization" in English and German.
Primer on Molecular Genetics - Presented by the U.S. Department of Energy, this is a good place to learn more information about the science behind the Human Genome Project.
