Extractions: Pig Genome Update No. 24 May 1, 1997 We in the entire U.S. animal genome community owe Dr. Neal Jorgensen a big debt of thanks! Neal, more than anyone in the Experiment Stations, helped to develop and shape the National Animal Genome Program which led to the NRSP-8. During his tenure as the lead administrative advisor Neal has helped to organize scientists, plan the program, secure funding for all of the collaborative and cooperative efforts and to defend NRSP-8 from those that who have liked to eliminate it. Neal is retiring from the University of Wisconsin this year where he has been a valued faculty member and administrator for the past 29 years. A reception in his honor will be May 28 and as part of the retirement there will be a gift of a book of letters. Please consider sending Neal a letter of thanks for his efforts. The letters should be unfolded and sent to Ms. Jenny Hergenrother, College of Agric. and Life Sciences, 140 Ag Hall, 1450 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706 by no later than May 19. Thanks to some great ideas there will be additional resources to share in 1997.

Extractions: Apunte aquí para versión en Español X Introduction Knowledge and information are key to correct pest management decisions. Integrated pest management (IPM), a system that emphasizes appropriate decision making, is information intensive and depends heavily on accurate and timely information for field implementation by practitioners (Bajwa and Kogan 2000). Additionally, it is critical to strengthen the communication links between researchers and extension professionals and their clientele to expedite multi-way exchange of information and technology transfer. In addition, researchers and extension specialists need the most up-to-date information to design new projects and set future research goals and directions. There is already a large volume of useful IPM information available on the Internet, however, the information is scattered all across the globe. These resources range from topics such as pest identification, biology, control tactics, IPM definitions and basic concepts, to modeling and systems analysis. As awareness of the Internet increases worldwide, more people are participating not only as users of the information but also as creators of new information; as a consequence, the number of both IPM Internet servers and clients is increasing rapidly, perhaps slightly lagging but generally accompanying the exponential growth of the internet itself.

T. Zenger e-mail: zenger@gnv.ifas.ufl.edu Abstract THE IMPACT OF THE INTERNET ON ENTOMOLOGY TEACHING AND RESEARCH The Internet is relatively new and yet is entering our lives at an extraordinary rate. Because it is new, the Internets ultimate impact is not yet determined and cannot be foreseen. However, because the Internets effect on the field of entomology is already great it is important to chronicle its adoption into the areas of teaching and research to 1. alert entomologists to the changes that have occurred, and 2. take advantage of the resources that are now available. This will be done by briefly reviewing the history and current components of the Internet, and then separately addressing the topics of teaching and research. BRIEF HISTORY OF THE INTERNET The network that became the Internet began in 1969 as a U.S. Department of Defense project to develop a communication network that would survive a nuclear attack. Initially four universities were connected, a dozen or so in 1971 and eventually many sites were online. Scientists and researchers could now transfer files, hold online discussions and send e-mail between universities, companies and government agencies. The Internet as now defined was born in 1983, when a universal protocol was adopted and all research and government networks were connected (
