dc.description.abstract	Only 0.85% of the scanned 7500 database titles are related to biology and biotechnology developed in India. Of these, 73% are either bibliographic or directory type and the rest are textural, numeric or multimedia in nature. This paper reviews the Indian biology and biotechnology databses and their relation to international databases on the subject. It highlights their limitations and throws more light on their potential for subject experts and information managers in the country to build informative and interactive databases
