FOREWORD
With Volume 4 the Barley Genetics Newsletter continues as a successful
publication because of the quality and quantity of the contributions from
barley workers all over the world. The editors solicit your continued manuscripts
as well as your comments on ways to improve the Newsletter.
Since the information in this Newsletter is of an informal nature we remind you that BGN is not an official publication and that except for symbols, stock designations and linkage maps, quotes should only be made with the permission of the contributor.
We will be looking forward to visiting with many of you at the third International Barley Genetics Symposium at Munich in 1975.
