Summary : The quality and success of most research depends on researchers' ability to access and use good-quality information. The increased use of biotechnology in agriculture makes research and development even more information intensive and makes research management more information dependent. In recent years, electronic information particularly has become a major resource in research. electronic information can often be retrieved more easily, at less cost, and faster than traditional, printed information. The internet sessions during the course discuss electronic resources for research such as genome databases and resources for research management.
