title: Genome mapping databases: data acquisition, storage and access.
abstract: The introduction of the genome database to the human gene mapping community in September 1990 heralded the advent of a new generation of databases to serve the needs of the human genome initiative over the coming years. The databases will act as a fulcrum around which the activities of the human genome initiative can be coordinated at an international level.
