Dear colleagues, members of the TDWG Mailing List,
we would like to inform you that we are in the final phase of preparing the
proceedings volume of the Symposium "Rudolf Mansfeld and Plant Genetic
Resources" (held in October 2001 in Gatersleben, Germany) for publication.
Attached please find brief information (including the table of contents)
about this publication, which is expected to appear in February/March 2003.
The Proceedings will contain, among others, some contributions about the
Mansfeld Database and other taxonomic databases. In addition, several
papers deal with questions of the taxonomy of cultivated plants. Therefore,
we consider that some members of the TDWG mailing list might be interested
in this information.
If you are interested in buying these proceedings (at a price of 10 Euro,
including shipment), please inform us as soon as possible, not later than
December 20, 2002. We will calculate the number of copies to be printed,
based on the expressions of interest received.
Please, also inform your colleagues and scientific libraries about this
possibility.
P.S. We apologise for the possibility of sending multiple copies of this
announcement to the same address, due to membership in different mailing lists.
With best regards, yours,
Helmut Knüpffer and Jörg Ochsmann
