Given a fixed bipartite graph H, we study the asymptotic speed of growth of the number of bipartite graphs on n vertices which do not contain an induced copy of H. Whenever H contains either a cycle or the bipartite complement of a cycle, the speed of growth is ${{2}}^{\Omega({{n}}^{{{{6}}\over {{5}}}})}$. For every other bipartite graph except the path on seven vertices, we are able to find both upper and lower bounds of the form ${{n}}^{{{cn}}+{{o}}({{n}})}$. In many cases we are able to determine the correct value of c. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 60: 219–241, 2009
