After hours of searching the web I am still scratching my head! If anyone can offer any help or point me in the right direction i'd be very grateful CH -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Carbohydrate-partitioning-in-maize-tp15858058p15858058.html Sent from the Bio.net - Maize mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I desperately seek a reprint of this reference: Wright J (1961) A new yellow stripe on chromosome 3. MNL 35(92):111. If anyone has that 1961 issue, and would be willing to scan and send me a copy, I will be in your debt. Even if you can't make a scan, if I could simply ask you a question or two about the article, I would be much obliged. I do realize that most of the MNL isues are available on line at http://www.agron.missouri.edu/ , but, alas, the 1961 issue is not one of them.

Can you give me some idea, suggestions? Should I go for a different enzyme? I need your kind and valuable suggestion. Thanks, Partha -- Partha P Banerjee, Ph.
