- For additional information concerning the history of the manual you are using, as well as reagents, and web sites (links) for analyzing and comparing your luxA sequences (Lab 18/Exercise 26), please refer to the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse Website.
- Protocol Online - Your Lab's Reference Book offers an excellent "gateway" to numerous molecular biological and biochemical techniques. This site is an invaluable resource for "recipes," for developing alternative approaches and for problem-solving.
- A particularly good website for useful information concerning the molecular biology and biochemistry of bioluminescence, especially with regard to Vibrio fischeri, is located at the Dept. of Biological Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University.
- A good, general information website devoted to bioluminescence is located at The Bioluminescence Web Page.
- A website at the Department of Microbiology, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale provides a concise set of lecture notes concerning the genetic control of bioluminescence in Vibrio fischeri.
- The University of Nottingham, UK, offers an excellent gateway site to "Quorum Sensing" websites around the world. Synopses devoted to genetic control systems and signalling molecules are particularly informative.
- A site located in Poland, Luminescent Bacteria, illustrates that the acquisition of information can also be entertaining. Please note that the server for this website appears to be often "offline" and may be difficult to access!
