photocopying, microfilming, recording, or otherwise, without written permission from the Publisher PREFACE Past efforts to colonize the environment and domesticate living species, coupled with scientific research, have resulted in the possession (but not always the real control) by humans of any available terrestrial space However, oceans, which represent up to twothirds of the surface of the planet, had not been really approached until the middle of this century As oceanographic science develops, the picture of a rich, diverse, complex and also, in many respects, specific marine life, is coming into view In a broad sense, marine biotechnologies can be understood as the various means or techniques of managing marine living systems for the benefit of mankind The first goal we have is for marine life to provide biomass for food However, today it is not certain that a significant increase of total world fisheries' catches will be possible in the future There are several ways to address this First, we need to generate better, more complete, or different uses of the biomass actually fished This is mainly a matter of upgrading fish and fish wastes Second, we need to artificially grow the living species This falls within the scope of cell cultivation and of aquaculture Both approaches have to be appreciated simultaneously in terms of biology, ecology, and economy In both approaches, profit improvements are linked to the introduction of biotechnological methods and to the use of biotechnological processes The main characteristics of fished biomasses is that they still exist and are readily available They can be considered a huge reservoir of molecules: polysaccharides, enzymes, fats, etc., exhibiting physical, chemical, or biological activities of interest for various purposes The main problem (and it is not a minor one), in terms of techniques and cost, is to isolate and purify these molecules The second issue in biomass treatment is mass cultivation of marine organisms It is now clear that trying to reproduce biomass intensively and artificially cannot easily yield profits, unless we use a series of biotechnological tricks that will permit a drastic lowering of the costs During the last l years, another important problem has emerged This is the spreading of pathogenic organisms in overcrowded sea farms Within a short period of time, sea farms could be almost completly destroyed by marine viruses, microorganisms, or parasites about which we have little information Solutions to these problems represent real strategic tasks for the marine biotechnologists requiring basic research in developmental biology, genetics, gene enginering, endocrinology, pathology, and immunology of species as different as flatfish, salmon, shrimps, abalone, among others Biodiversity is largely a reflection of the very specific aspects of marine life An early trend consisted of limiting the scope of marine biotechnologies to the production of v vi Preface biological models that facilitate the study of general mechanisms These studies feed our knowledge and understanding of life that is built on an unique pattern In contrast, they also favor the exploitation of structural, developmental, and biochemical specificities Marine biotechnologies reveal their genuine potential in offering the investigation and exploitation of molecules and mechanisms for which we not know of any terrestrial counterparts Marine biotechnology is by nature multidisciplinary and clearly incorporates new technologies from molecular biology and chemical analysis to bioreactor technology Marine biotechnologies also deal with environmental management The first step in any kind of management involves a diagnosis of the condition of a systems The past decade has been marked by considerable progress in using rapid and sensitive methods for estimating biological responses to human-induced changes in the environment Many of these methods now use molecular probes, nucleic acids, immunoreagents, or enzymatic biosensors that allow us to record efficiently a considerable number of data A main problem is how to handle this huge quantity of information, to use it, and to forecast the evolutionary trends of an estuary, a bay, a sea, or an ocean Finally, one of the most promising goals for marine biotechnologies will be the possibility of using sophisticated biological tools for managing marine ecosystems Controlling natural production of useful species will be less costly than trying to rear completely demanding species Understanding the tenuousness of the relationship between planktonic species and their environment will perhaps give us an insight on climatic changes and on the biological future of the planet The domains covered by marine biotechnologies are vast and range over various overlapping disciplines, from the molecular approaches of developmental biology and biodiversity to the chemistry of natural substances New fields are rapidly evolving and are helping to successively emphasize specific areas of biological sciences With its biphasic unfolding, the format of the fourth edition of International Marine Biotechnology Conference (IMBC'97) was original and successful, as it enabled the presentation of straightforward reports and constructive discussions With more than sixty selected papers organized in eight sections, this book covers the present state of the art in marine biotechnologies HHand YLG TRIBUTE TO NINO SALVATORE The International Marine Biotechnology Conferences represent an assembly of interdisciplinary scientists and technologists with a common interest in Marine Science Nino Salvatore was one of these He joined the IOC to plan for IMBC'94 in Tromsoe, Norway and quickly demonstrated that he was one of those rare individuals in the scientific community who made an almost instantaneous impression on any person fortunate enough to be acquainted with him His high standards and enthusiasm were widely felt-from the revitalizing of the Stazione Zoologica in Naples, to science policy in the EU, to support for biotechnology, developmental biology, and molecular biology Prof Salvatore was a strong enthusiast for basic research and its application to solving problems of the day During the IMBC'94 meeting, the lack of an European organization to deal with international and European collaboration became evident Characteristically, Nino Salvatore saw the need to establish such an organization He organized an ad hoc meeting and a decision was made to go ahead The European Society for Marine Biotechnology was formed, and its first President, Dr Jan Olafsen, is a member of IOC and was our host in Tromsoe for 1MBC'94 When the decision was made to hold IMBC'97 in Italy, Dr Salvatore applied his energy and enthusiam to its organization, financial support, and his wish to something different An international program committee, chaired by Dr Frank Gannon, developed a program based on peer review of submitted abstracts The mobility of the meeting is an expression of Nino Salvatore's desire to have as many people and scenarios involved as possible because of the diverse subject areas that need to be covered in biotechnology If people cannot come to the conference, the conference will visit them He also had in mind to permit as many of his countrymen to participate as possible while at the same time broadening the picture of the scope of this interdisciplinary subject area in Italy in the minds of foreign conference participants Science has lost a visionary person with a remarkable character Individuals make a difference and Prof Salvatore He will be missed The IMBC'97 is dedicated to him We seek your help in making this meeting a success and thereby honoring Gaetano Salvatore Harlyn Halvorson vii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS High Patronage of the President of the Italian Republic Under the aegis of the European Union Under the
