Some Concise Description attributions missing
Due to a technical error, the Concise Descriptions that appear at the
top of the Gene Summary pages have lost paper evidence attribution
from worm meeting abstracts and from Worm Breeder’s Gazette articles.
Please be aware that some of these descriptions contain data that was
extracted from these sources, in addition to the published literature
that remains listed as evidence. Proper attribution will soon be
restored to the development site and the live site. WormBase
apologizes for the error.
