[Chicken-genome] Re: chicken GO proposal

[Dr. Steffen Weigend]

Dear Dave,

With great interest I have seen your application of chicken Gene Ontology 
project. The outcome of this project will be extremly useful to a large 
community of avian and developmental biologists and will have an important 
impact on future research in various directions including the improvement of 
our understanding of genetic diversity in poultry, one essential prerequisite 
to conserve, manage and utilize genetic resources. I strongly support your 
project application to the BBSRC.

Best regards
Steffen
