The First Asia --- Pacific Conference on Agricultural Biotechnology
was held in Beijing, China on 20-24, August, 1992. Over half the
population in the world is in the Asian and Pacific Region. With an
increasing population and decreasing farming lands, it is important
to develop agricultural biotechnology for improvement of the
productivity, profitability and stability of the farming system.
The Conference's main objectives were to bring together scientists
working in different fields of agricultural biotechnology to
stimulate discussion on this important process and to have an
appraisal of the most recent studies concerning genetic
manipulation of plants, plant cell and tissue culture, plant gene
regulation, plant-microbe interaction, animal biotechnology etc.
The Conference was attended by 391 scientists from different
countries and regions. This volume presents the contributions of
the lectures and a selected number of posters, which are an
up-to-date account of the state of knowledge on agricultural
biotechnology. The book provides a valuable reference source not
only for specialists in agricultural biotechnology, but also for
researchers working on related aspects of agronomy, biochemistry,
genetics, molecular biology, microbiology and animal sciences. It
is with great pleasure to acknowledge the contributions of the
authors in assuring the prompt publication of this volume. We would
also extend our sincere thank to Kluwer Academic Publishers for the
publication of these proceedings.
