I appreciate the timely appearance of the article and editorial on the support of US agricultural science (Nature 394, 207; 1998& Nature 394, 210; 211; 1998). They should serve to inform the scientific public about how science at the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) is currently funded and the uncertain future of the authorized new monies that would provide additional funding for plant and animal genome research (among other topics).
