[DIYbio] Re: Transgenic CCD resistant honeybee - need help

Perhaps I should patent my mechanisms before Monsanto does. 

Does anyone know how to file biotech patents? 


What I imagine: 

Selling Transgenic bee version 1.0 in 2015 (after approval from EPA)
the bees outcross with other farmers' bees, and after 3 years no one will buy the transgenic bee 1.0 any more. Then version 1.0  will be made open source. 
2018: Transgenic bee 2.0 
If farmers want better bees, they *want* to buy transgenic bee version 2.0. In case they are happy with less, they are free to use and breed version 1.0


Does that sound like a fair buisness model?
