  • Here Is a Quick Explanation of How the Seed Exchange Works
    RULES OF THE SEED EXCHANGE The rules of the seed exchange have been revised in 2014, in order to make it run more smoothly, be more cost-effective (it makes a loss, so is a cost to the Society) and offer a better service. Please ensure that you READ these new rules and follow them: they are available to all so you will be deemed to know about them! INTRODUCTION Please remember that the seed exchange is basically a free service provided by the members for the members (you only pay a small charge to cover postage, stationery etc), and all work is done by volunteers. These rules are designed to make it possible to continue offering the service on the present basis; we simply do not have enough time to deal with either donations or orders which take up more time than they ought, hence the various inducements and sanctions we offer or impose. Here is a quick explanation of how the seed exchange works. Donors collect seed in their gardens as it ripens, name and package it and send it in to me before a closing date published in the magazine each year. I put all seed of the same variety into one large envelope (checking that it's what it says it is and that the name is correct as I go along), and when all the seed is in I make a list of what I have and number the envelopes to match the list. The list then goes off to press and the seeds go to the Cheshire Group to be packeted into the small individual packets in which they are sent out - over a thousand varieties, each into an average of twenty packets, and all numbered.

The primary purpose of specialist reports associated with the DEIS is to provide detailed information to assist in the preparation of the DEIS. As the DEIS was prepared, review-driven edits to the broader DEIS resulted in modifications to some of the information contained in some of the specialist reports. As a result, some reports no longer contain information and analysis that was updated through an interdisciplinary review process and is included in the DEIS in its entirety.

INTRODUCTION REGULATIONof variability in a species is mainly determined by its chromosome behaviour and reproductive method. Their genotypic control and adaptive nature has been pointed out by Darlington (1932, '939) and by Mather (i4). Their co-adaptation is vita! for the genetic balance of a breeding group. Consequently, a forced change in the breeding system of a species upsets its chromosome behaviour during meiosis as in rye (see Rees, 1961) or it may lead to selection for a change in chromosome structure securing immediate fitness as in cockroaches (Lewis and John, 1957; John and Lewis, 1958). In nature, coordination between chromosome structure and behaviour, and the breeding system fulfils the need for compromise between long term flexibility and immediate fitness. This is achieved through the control of crossing over within the chromosomes and recombination between them. The sex differences in meiosis, however, have a special significance in this respect and I have discussed the same earlier (i965b). Thus, the meiotic mechanism provides recom- bination within the genotype and the breeding systems extend the same to the population. The present study is an attempt to find out the working correlations between the two components of the genetic systems in the genus Allium. 2. MATERIALSAND METHODS Mostof the Allium species used in the present studies were obtained from Botanic Gardens but wild material was examined where possible (table i, Ved Brat, x 965a). Meiosis was studied from the pollen mother cells after squashing in acetic orcein (Vosa, i g6 i).
