Introduction
WormBase is a biological database of all genomic and genetic data of the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and related nematodes. This is a guide for using WormBase WormBase the genetic and genomic database of the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and related nematodes. WormBase is developed by an international consortium of researchers and computer scientists.
