Dear Colleagues,

 

It is our pleasure to inform you that we received about one hundred filled applications on the first announcement concerning workshop on Application of the molecular markers in studies on plants and organized in Konstancin-Jeziorna by the Botanical Garden – Center for Biodiversity Conservation of the Polish Academy of Sciences & Polish Botanical Society (Biotechnology section) on September, 25-29 (2002).

 

Our papers are to be published in an International Journal “Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters” which is indexed in Chemical Abstracts, AGRO-AGEN, BIOSIS, EMBASES/ Excerpta Medica and WinSPIRS. More information about the Journal and other useful information are available on the WWW pages at the address: http://www.microb.uni.wroc.pl/biochem/cmbl.htm.

 

As it was mentioned previously our best intention is to have all the original papers printed on the day of the workshop. In order to do that you will be obliged to keep strictly all the deadlines (see below). Papers of the authors who will not follow the terms will not be printed and the fee will not be returned. As all the materials should be ready on September the 25th we will not publish abstracts of our meeting (they will be available on the internet – the page in preparation). For electronic version of the announcement and any proceeding information check on the internet: http://wheat.pw.usda.gov .
