Drosophila Genetic Resource Center

The Drosophila Genetic Resource Center (DGRC) is a facility that collects, preserves, and distributes genetically diverse fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) stocks for research. These flies are valuable model organisms used to study genetics, development, and disease. The center provides scientists worldwide with high-quality genetic resources, enabling reproducibility and advancing scientific discoveries. By maintaining well-characterized fly strains and related tools, DGRC supports both fundamental biology and biomedical research, fostering collaboration and innovation in genetics.
