In-Vitro Production of Baculovirus Biopesticides - A Systems Biology Approach. This project has the potential to develop an in-vitro production process that can produce large quantities of Baculoviruses at costs comparable to selective chemicals. This could transform agriculture allowing farmers to choose an insect control option that is both safe and efficacious to use as well as economically and environmentally superior to chemicals, and less controversial than transgenic plants. This outcome ....In-Vitro Production of Baculovirus Biopesticides - A Systems Biology Approach.

This could transform agriculture allowing farmers to choose an insect control option that is both safe and efficacious to use as well as economically and environmentally superior to chemicals, and less controversial than transgenic plants. This outcome would enhance Australia's reputation in the animal cell technology field (related technology is used to produce protein pharmaceutical products), and will earn significant export dollars through licensing out of the technology or through large scale manufacturing and export of the product itself.
