N1  - Includes tables; Includes bibliographical references; This report is the third in a series of related research and program-management reports from the Intermediary Biotechnology Service that appear as ISNAR Research Reports. Each IBS report elaborates issues involved in biotechnology research program management and policy formulation, including needs assessment. One provides a comparative description of the different approaches taken by developing-country governments to stimulate biotechnology research. Another reviews the current international debate on intellectual property protection and assesses the policy options and implications for developing countries. A forthcoming report will give an overview of international initiatives that have as a common goal the application of biotechnology to tropical agriculture. It will also review opportunities for national institutions in developing countries to collaborate with international biotechnology programs. Other forthcoming reports will address future needs and priorities for biotechnology research on livestock, and the potential effects of biotechnology on tropical beverage crops, small-scale producers, and international markets
