To Maize Geneticists :-

This letter contains information from many sources, arranged under the following heads:-

  1. Collective publication of linkages.
  2. General news items. Includes notes on linkage without data, lists of seed stocks, etc,
  3. Linkage data
  4. Seed stocks received, and those propagated in the Cooperation garden at Ithaca.
  5. Tests of inbred strains for disease resistance.
  6. Special notices.

Most of these reports are given almost verbatim but are not put in quotation marks because in numerous instances they have been somewhat abbreviated and sometimes the phraseology has been changed (without, I trust, a change in meaning). Statements enclosed in brackets, [ ] , are gratuitous comments by your secretary.
