Quick Bibliography Series Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography Series of the National Agricultural Library, are intended primarily for current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are not indepth exhaustive bibliographies on any given subject. However, the citations are a substantial resource for recent investigations on a given topic. They also serve the purpose of bringing the literature of agriculture to the interested user who, in many cases, could not access it by any other means. The bibliographies are derived from computerized on-line searches of the AGRICOLA data base. Timeliness of topic and evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria.

The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search strategy of the Quick Bibliography. Information regarding these is available upon request from the author/searcher.

Copies of this bibliography may be made or used for distribution without prior approval. The inclusion or omission of a particular publication or citation may not be construed as endorsement or disapproval.

To request a copy of a bibliography in this series, send the series title, series number and self-addressed gummed label to:

Abstract:  The purpose of this article is twofold. First is to present some of
the economic considerations in the use of microbial cells as biocontrol
agents. These include the fermentation and formulation costs as well as the
importance of reducing application rates. Second is to discuss the
requirements for the formulation of microbes and to introduce Monsanto's new
encapsulation technology for microbial pesticides. This encapsulation
technology is applicable to both phylloplane and rhizosphere delivery, has
shown good field results and preliminary tests indicate the process results in
good shelf-life.

Abstract:  This paper considers approaches of assessment of the
cost-effectiveness of immobilization methods, using two biocatalysts that can
be employed for L-lysine production by the chemical-enzymatic method as
models. The main cost-effectiveness indices examined are biocatalyst activity,
the manner in which it changes during immobilization, catalytic stability, and
biocatalyst cost, as well as indices characterizing physical properties.
Another cost-effectiveness criterion for immobilization methods is provided by
an index that estimates the contribution made by biocatalyst cost to target
product cost.

Abstract:  Various methods of grape stem bioconversion were studied with
consideration of the criteria of effectiveness (increase of protein per unit
substrate, biological value, etc.) and economy. It is shown that the method of
growing a mixed culture--yeast (protein) and fungus (cellulolytic)--on
ligno-cellulose raw material is the most effective. The biological value of the
feed product is highest with the use of a substrate that was preliminarily
hydrolyzed with dilute (2%) H2SO4 and freed from solid nonhydrolyzed remains.
The methods of solid-phase and deep fermentation of the mixed culture are
equivalent with respect to specific cost referred to a unit increase of
protein per unit substrate used. The effectiveness of these methods is 2-3
times higher than that of the other methods studied. The calculations were made
with consideration of a production capacity of 60,000 tonnes of yeast per year.

Abstract:  This paper estimates the cost of mastitis for the New York dairy
sector. The average cost is found to be $125 per cow from reduced milk
production, treatment, and increased culling. At the 1988 cow inventory, this
translates to approximately $100 million annually for the entire dairy farm
sector. When quality and production losses for the processing sector are
added, the cost to the New York industry alone is nearly $150 million
annually. Two promising new treatments, a bacteriocin and a vaccine, are
evaluated. Both have shown effectiveness in preliminary trials against
Staphylococcus aureus. Assuming that further development will allow the
treatments to be effective against the major bacterial sources of mastitis
infections, the treatments are projected to increase the annual income of the
New York dairy industry by $18.8 to $39.7 million. The bacteriocin could
replace antibiotic usage, a desirable goal in the opinion of many, and the
vaccine promises to immunize cows against mastitis very effectively.

Abstract:  The widescale application and commercialization of the use of
inocula of free-living rhizobacteria for plant growth promotion (PGP) is
impeded by inconsistent field performance. Despite a decade of intensive
research there is, more than ever, a need for fundamental research in order to
develop effective and reliable inocula.

Language:  English

Trade policy; Market competition

Abstract:  In the newly emerging field of biotechnology, Japan so far is
generally considered to be lagging somewhat behind the US. Through the
judicious application of industrial policy to encourage the growth of the
industry, however, Japan is rapidly gaining on the US lead. Joint ventures
between large Japanese Companies specializing in areas such as chemicals and
food and new American biotechnology companies play a key role in the
technology-transfer process. This paper analyzes the dynamics and potential of
Japanese efforts in biotechnology. Certain structural features of the Japanese
economy, such as extensive corporate financial resources, traditional
fermentation expertise, and, in particular, government policy to encourage
high-technology research and development, serve to increase Japanese
competitiveness in the field.

is, however, perfectly general and can be used in ex-post evaluations of new
drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. The fundamental idea, which is accredited
to Weitzman (1976), is that a flow concept like net income in a dynamic economy
contains precise information about a stock concept like wealth.

Abstract:  A commercial type liquid culture medium for the production of
Colletotrichum truncatum NRRL 13737, a pathogen of the weed hemp sesbania, was
developed. The concentrations of culture ingredients: 20 g glucose l-1, 2.5 g
Tastone yeast extract l-1, 7.5 g Pharmamedia l-1 are optimum for batch
cultures. Initial glucose concentration determined total dry weight which was
largely composed of mycelia: Pharmamedia concentration influenced the yield and
rate of spore production; Tastone 154 yeast extract apparently supplied a
nutritional factor which also affected the yield and rate of spore production
but to a lesser extent. Batch culture with the described media yielded 6.2 X
10(7) spores per ml in three days. Studies of spore recovery, drying and
storage can now be conducted with a commercial type culture medium.

Abstract:  The cost of biosynthesis products was chosen as an arbitrary
economic criterion for assessing the optimality of culturing regimes, since
minimization of this criterion is of decisive importance for broad industrial
introduction of cultured plant cells. Mathematical models have been devised for
the functional relationships between cost of biomass as primary
biosynthesis product and cost of secondary metabolite on one hand and process
parameters and plant cell physiological characteristics in culture on the other
for growth under a multicycle regime. The models were used to evaluate
culturing regime optimality for Dioscorea deltoidea IFR DM 0.5 cells (which
produce diosgenin) in 5-liter and 50-liter fermenters; the results were
extrapolated to industrial-scale processes.

Abstract:  Patents influence economic development and international
competition in the biotechnology industry. They have been, and currently are,
used in many countries as a form of non-tariff trade barrier, where
legislative, judicial or simply policy mechanics dissuade non-residents from
entering into business. Patent policies towards biotechnology are even more
complicated than in other areas. Different definitions of patentable material
and the lack of global standards have resulted in a diversity of national
biotechnology patent policies. In order for biotechnology to mature as a
global industry, these issues of patent nationalism and patent policy must be
addressed by governments and the business and legal communities.

Abstract:  Effecting genetic improvement requires genetic variation, a
mechanism of selection, and an economic incentive for the improvement. Limited
data suggest that there is within-breed genetic variation in milk fat
composition, but accurate estimates are lacking. There is some evidence for
modest differences among breeds. Substantial differences exist among Species,
indicating that substantial genetic change in fat composition is biologically
possible. The economic incentives for genetic change are not clear. Changes in
fat composition that would improve the quality of one milk product would often
be detrimental to other products. Such changes would best work where
subpopulations produced milk for specific end products. Such division of the
industry would be difficult to organize and might impede existing improvement
programs. Changes in fat composition that increased consumer acceptance of milk
products, such as reduced saturated fat concentration, might increase the
market for milk products. However, only large changes in composition are
likely to affect consumer acceptance; thus, the gradual changes of
conventional genetic improvement would produce little or no return to the
breeder. Genetic changes that reduced processing costs or increased product
value might have low to moderate economic value, inducing slow rates of
change. Production of transgenic animals might provide a route for genetic
alteration of fat composition in the future. Such improvement would most
likely be cost effective in a subdivided production industry in which milk from
cows of a particular genotype can be directed to a particular milk
product. It is concluded that although alteration of fat composition could be
achieved, it is unlikely to be an important component of genetic improvement of
dairy cattle.

Abstract:  The economic value of various trends in STP is treated as the basic
criterion for the urgency of work in these areas. It is recommended that value
to the national economy (from utilization) rather than value within an
industry (from manufacturing) be taken into account. The present paper
formulates the problems that must be solved in order for this parameter to be
used in decision-making by planning organizations.

Abstract:  Federal oversight of agricultural biotechnology field testing is
based on public concerns that unknown consequences could arise from such
tests, and that firms may not adequately consider the public consequences of
their research and development activities. In this paper, four general types of
ex ante and ex post approaches to manage public risks from field testing are
explored. The analysis shows that the approaches are least effective at
facilitating the research process yet controlling public risks when the
research firm is small in size and potential damages exceed the value of the
firm.

Abstract:  A model is developed for evaluating the size and distribution of the
economic benefits from research that improves the quality of an export
commodity. Quality improvement, achieved by research or by agronomic
practices, shifts the domestic and/or excess demand curves for an export
commodity. Research costs are not modeled, but any shift in the supply curve
(due to a change in yield, for example) accompanying the quality improvement is
included. The model is used to estimate the gains from research that
increases protein content in Australian wheat. It is estimated that Australia
has the potential to obtain net benefits up to A$53 million per year from a one
percentage point increase in the protein content in wheat. Over 90% of these
gains accrue to wheat producers.

Abstract:  In 1993, the Single European Market will become reality. For
consumers and producers, economic advantages can be expected. However, concern
has been expressed as to the possible negative effects on food quality. After a
brief review of EC food legislation, outlines activities in the dairy field
which may contribute to a high quality standard of dairy products. These are
among other things related to drinking milk (protein content, heat load),
fermented milk (characteristic micro-organisms), cheese (raw milk cheeses,
cheeses with specific characteristics) and butter (butter definition, criteria
for first quality butter, control of butterfat purity). In a final chapter
discusses the future role of products obtained from genetically manipulated
micro-organisms in the dairy sector.
