Addendum: Views on Forest Biotechnology: Report from a Conference on Tree Improvement by Genetic Engineering

A three-day Workshop was held in North Carolina in January of 1987 to focus the thoughts and ideas of both scientists and industrial managers on the current technical state and future potential for tree improvement using genetic engineering approaches. Participants, from three principal interest groups, included government (USDA Forest Service and North Carolina Biotechnology Center), industry (timber, pulp and paper, and genetic engineering companies), and academic professionals from both the research and business management areas.
