Hence, the Gymnosperm Database, with descriptions of about 1,000 taxa including a variety of photographic and botanical illustrations. The database is open for contributions and currently seeks a permanent home on an academic server. Get the notes on Darwin, Adaptation, Evolutionary Genetics, Speciation, Systematics, History of Diversity, Biogeography, Origins of Novelty, Molecular Evolution, Coevolution, and Human Issues. Accordingly, it is fairly packed with goodies, especially BioBot, a biological search engine that combs NBII, Alta Vista Biology, Snap Biology, GoNetworkBiology, Yahoo Biology and BioLinks. This Link goes directly to the Science main directory from which there are many ways to refine a quest by pursuing a more general or more specific topic.
Short descriptions follow the entries and the editing is A-plus.
There are keys and identification guides to terrestrial and aquatic organisms of British Columbia on this website, along with field procedures, data collection, and inventory methods employed by the government's Resources Inventory Committee. Aquatic biologists, ecologists, environmental toxicologists, invert-zoologists and experimenting students will want to take a look at the more than several Manuals published on this site by the RIC, Louise Rosenberger, Publications Coordinator, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Then try Anatomy of Cells and Tissues, Classic Genetics, Molecular Reactions in Plants, Intercellular Communication, Interactions Between Plants, Fungi, Bacteria, and Viruses, Evolution, An Overview of the Plant Kingdom, Ecology and Essays, all with great visuals. This webzine is a gem, with knock-out photography of daffodils, diatoms, and life's tinier events as can only be witnessed under the microscope. It is designed to enlist new microscopy enthusiasts, providing an introduction to the art with instructions and projects for beginners.
