                      AND MANY MORE TOPICS!


The Biotechnology Information Center, an information center of the 
National Agricultural Library(USDA), has developed a rich source of 
current Biotechnology-related information available via Internet.

We have not only included our own (Biotechnology Information Center) files
created by searching the AGRICOLA database, but have also included files
created by the Plant Genome and Data Information Center, another
information center of the National Agricultural Library.  We already 
have more than eighty files, and we plan to add many more files. We have 
also created links to other Agricultural Biotechnology related Gophers. 

Our files include bibliographies primarily composed of peer-reviewed 
scientific journal citations, with abstracts, on subjects ranging from 
bovine somatotropin to gene expression in algae and fungi.

To access these files via Gopher: 

telnet inform.umd.edu
   -Educational Resources
     -Biotechnology Information Center

If you prefer FTP, follow the same path as the one listed above.

If you have only email access, talk to your Internet provider about 
"FTPmail," a method of accessing these files via email.  Many of the 
current books about Internet also describe FTPmail.  

Please send us your questions and comments.
