THANKS AGAIN!

Many thanks to you who respond to my requests for information about your Lotus research. Your contributions to the Lotus Newsletter help generate a better perspective of the international research and management on the many species of Lotus.

INTERNET AVAILABILITY

You have successfully accessed the Lotus Newsletter homepage. If you need a hardcopy you can print a copy for yourself or you simply read the volume of your choice without filling your bookshelf. My goal is to work my way back through all the volumes until they are all in electronic format.

From the homepage you should be able to access the current volume or past volumes. The current volume for the year will be a compilation of all Lotus news and articles received between January 1 through December 31.

The internet address for the Lotus Newsletter is: http://www.plantsci.missouri.edu/lnl

SPECIAL THANKS

The illustration on the cover is of Lotus subbiflorus Lag. (syn. Lotus sauvelons Pers) has again been graciously provided by Ana Arambarri (Argentina). The Lotus illustration is the 8th in a series of illustrations that started with Volume 23.
