    Daul, Aric L., Stiernagle, Theresa, Knott, Julie, & Rougvie, Ann E. (2011). Caenorhabditis Genetics Center presented in International Worm Meeting. Unpublished information; cite only with author permission.

    The Caenorhabditis Genetics Center (CGC), supported by the National Institutes of Health - National Center for Research Resources (NIH-NCRR), supplies Caenorhabditis strains and information to researchers throughout the world. The CGC continues to be housed at the University of Minnesota and will continue its duties of acquiring, maintaining and distributing worm stocks. The CGC now has over 13,000 different strains. We strive to have at least one allele of every published gene and all chromosome rearrangements, duplications and deficiencies. Selected multiple-mutant stocks and transgenic strains are also available, including some strains from the modENCODE project and strains that express various fluorescent protein reporter fusions. The CGC also has stocks of nematode species closely related to C. elegans and bacterial strains necessary for nematode growth. A searchable strains list, including information about CGC stocks, is accessible either through the CGC website (www.cbs.umn.edu/CGC/) or through WormBase. Requests for strains should be made via the on-line ordering system available through our website; the CGC no longer accepts orders submitted by fax. As mandated by NIH-NCRR, a small yearly user fee and charge per strain is assessed with each order. The CGC strongly encourages use of credit cards for these charges, and now accepts credit payments for invoices directly through the CGC website. Payments must be made by check or credit card; electronic bank transfer may not be used for making payment. We provide quarterly reports to the NIH with statistics that reflect our services to the worm community. We like to be acknowledged in papers for providing strains. We also like to receive pdf files of such papers, copies of which we provide to NIH.
