On behalf of Dr. Ron Allen:
The Multi-State W-6 (Plant Genetic Resource Management, Preservation, Characterization and Utilization) Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) held its annual meeting June 18, 2013.  It was noted that Arizona was not represented on this committee and they are asking us to identify an individual willing to serve.  This is an active committee that plays a significant role in communicating  and discussing issues that impact  the germplasm preservation system.
