Hello,

I recently took advantage of Hannes, our man in the FAO, to obtain two obscure references about CMS in cultivated sunflower. Hannes, or rather his intern Brian, has sent me scans:

Serieys (1996) Identification, Study And Utilisation In Breeding Programs Of New CMS Sources. Helia 19:144-160.

Serieys (????) Identification, Study And Utilisation In Breeding Programs Of New CMS Sources. FAO Progress Report 1999-2001.

If you have any interest in the cms literature you have probably noticed that everybody cites these papers to make the claim that there are many sources of cms in sunflower. Now you can too.

Thanks Hannes, and thanks Brian.

Dan.
