Updates to the Chlamydomonas Resource Center
A new on-line ordering form and secure on-line payment site are now working. A shopping cart-based order system is under construction and should be up soon. Among the new acquisitions are the artificial miRNA plasmids recently described by Molnar et al. [PMID: 19054357]. See the plasmid list for additional information.
