The European Commission, DG XII, has published a compendium of final reports from projects supported by the Community's Biotechnology programme under the Third Framework Programme (1992-1994). Overall, 133 research projects were selected to receive funding totalling ECU 158 million as a result of four calls for proposals. The first projects were launched in early 1993, while the last ones to finish were completed in 1997. The first volume contains projects completed before August 1996 and the second contains projects completed after August 1996. Details are included of projects in each of the following fields: - Protein structure and function; - Gene structure; - Expression of genes; - Cellular regeneration, reproduction and development of living organisms; - Metabolism of animals, plants and microbes: essential physiological traits; - Communication systems within living matter; - Ecological implications of biotechnology; - Conservation of genetic resources; - Information infrastructure.
