Dear Sheila,

thanks for your great initiative. I am teaching propagation of woody plants at Hannover university and if you would need any material from me,
just let me know. In turn I would be grateful if you keep me updated. Our research on forest plants deals with tissue culture and endophytic bacteria.
Thank you and kind regards

Traud

Thanks for your response on the online basic forest genetics course for tropical regions. What area would you like to be involved in? I will have the syllabus soon to send around. I hope to put it in Moodle, and make it accessible to anyone.

Dear Sheila;

I think it is a great idea to create this basic course in forest genetics (and forest genetic resources) focused on tropical regions. I am interested in collaborating towards this goal. Last year, I got involved in a similar course, oriented towards the use and conservation of forest genetic resources, in collaboration with Maarten Van Zonneveld from Bioversity International, which was was offered  at BICU University in Nicaragua. 

Please let me know how can I get involved.

Best regards,

Jesús Vargas

Asunto: [IUFRO Div 2] On developing a basic online course for tropical forest genetics

 

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
