Stocks

To search for stocks, browse the categories below, or use the Simple Stock Search, but we recommend using the Advanced Stock Search (for identifying stocks) or Advanced Symbol Search (for identifying particular components like alleles, insertions, aberrations) for more refined search capabilities. 

To search for stocks associated with a group of genes or a signaling pathway, try FlyBase Gene Group reports and Pathway reports, the hit list can be converted to stock list.

You can download stock lists for local browsing. Certain categories of stocks can be ordered as Predefined sets.
