Robert Koebner, aided and
abetted by Viktor Korzun, have
graciously volunteered to assemble seed stocks of these varieties. We are
asking that they obtain a large amount of seed, grind a large amount of it,
and make DNA. In this way, everyone should have the same DNA stock, and
the homogenised powder should provide a uniform reference material for a
long time to come and should avoid some sampling error of unfixed
genotypes.
