Site offers both products and services.

Bioinformatics Group
Based at the Australian National University, the Group researches both molecular bioinformatics and biodiversity informatics and aims to advance bioinformatic science by creating new and improved graphics-oriented tools for molecular sequence analysis, as well as new and improved techniques in phylogenetic tree estimation and testing. The Group provides support to systematists and other biological scientists through advice and assistance in molecular sequence analysis and phylogenetics, in addition to conducting courses and training in biological computing and analysis. Further aims are to apply bioinformatics to practical problems of international significance and to facilitate taxon-based research through the development and maintenance of biological databases.

Candida Albicans Genome
The Agabian Laboratory, University of California, bioinformatics site provides data on the use of the genomic sequence of the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans to develop DNA microarrays that will allow genome-wide expression analysis. Includes annotations database and publications.

Global Biodiversity Information Facility
The mission of GBIF is to make the world's primary data on biodiversity freely and universally available via the Internet. A major function of this mission is to ensure that biodiversity data will be shared with the countries of origin of natural history specimens and tissue cultures that are held in the world's museums and culture collections.

Integrated Biological Database Initiative
Malaysian site aiming to promote the development of centralised and distributed databases for biological resources.

Platypus
A relational database program developed to generate the web files for the Australian Faunal Directory (AFD) manages taxonomic, geographic, ecological, host-taxon, palaeontological, bibliographic and graphic information, as well as botanical names and specimen collection data. Software may be downloaded free of charge and is compatible with GBIF requirements.
