  The sequences used to develop this array are accessible through FlyBase. Probes were synthesized in situ.
  Contains >13,500 gene sequences predicted from annotation of the Drosophila genome version 1, >8000 sequences for which confirming EST or full-length cDNA evidence is available, ~3,000 genes identified using prediction algorithms, and ~2,500 genes that not only have a gene predicted algorithmically, but also show some homology to genes from other organisms.
  For ~4,000 genes, expressed sequence alignment information from the Drosophila Gene Collection was used to modify the boundaries of the predicted transcript. In these cases, the probe sets correspond to the modified exon boundaries. In addition, several hundred ESTs close to predicted gene sequences, but lying outside of predetermined gene inclusion boundaries, are included.
