Abstract
Only 1% of the presently available 5000 database titles are relevant to marine biology and biotechnology. Nearly 60% of these are bibliographic in nature. There are almost no textual and numeric databases, which are the prime need of researchers. This paper presents a review of the major databases related to marine biology and biotechnology, with a discussion on the scope for textual and numeric databases.
