Information Systems for Biotechnology (ISB) provides information resources to support the environmentally responsible use of agricultural biotechnology products. Here you will find documents and searchable databases pertaining to the development, testing and regulatory review of genetically modified plants, animals and microorganisms within the U.S. and abroad.
Additional information can be found through numerous links to academic, government, and international sites dealing with agricultural and environmental biotechnology research and product development. ISB is funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia.
