\begin{Description}\relax
drosgenome1SYMBOL is an R environment that provides mappings between
manufacturer ids and gene abbreviations.
\end{Description}
\begin{Details}\relax
Each manufacturer id is mapped to an abbreviation for the
corresponding gene. An \code{NA} is reported if there is no known
abbreviation for a given gene.

Symbols typically consist of 3 letters that define either a single
gene (ABC) or multiple genes (ABC1, ABC2, ABC3). Gene symbols can be
used as key words to query public databases such as Entrez Gene.

Mappings were based on data provided by:

\begin{ExampleCode}
    # Convert the environment to a list
    xx <- as.list(drosgenome1SYMBOL)
    if(length(xx) > 0){
        # The symbols for the first two elements of XX
        xx[1:2]
        # Get the first one
        xx[[1]]
    }
