Grant 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.
