Dear Sheila,
it will be a great challenge to organize this course!  My contribution
could be in the field of selection and breeding of fast growing species ,
and I have longtime experience in forest pathology and disease resistance
through field- and laboratory tests.
Kind regards, Marijke Steenackers

  Dear IUFRO Physiology and Genetics Division 2:
 I am thinking about preparing a basic forest genetics course for the
 forest engineering program at the Technical Institute of the Zona Maya in
 Chetumal, Quintana Roo. It could be part of larger effort to establish an
 online course available to any interested person, perhaps available in
 multiple languages (English, Spanish, French). The course materials might
 be used for a local course, or for review.  This sort of material is best
 given in a face-to-face class, but I think it would help a local instructor
 to have such materials available.
 I believe is a big need for this sort of course for many tropical areas. I
 am wondering if anyone would be interested helping to construct this
 course? Credit would be given to all participants.
 Thanks,
 Sheila Ward
