Editorial remarks

The present issue of WIS includes of nine articles of original research, and two important reports from international organizations. As described in the notice on the inside of cover, "Research article" are ones with judging by reviewers, and proportion of acceptance among contributed papers is about 60%. We welcome to receive informative articles in progress or of short communication without reviewer's revise, which will appear as "Research information".

Along the previous issue, we have asked members for continuation of subscription. Some of you have not responded by April, 1999, so that we include a questionnaire again to whom have not answered. This is important for saving energy and economy on continuous publication of this type of nonprofit academic journal.

During the last fiscal year, WIS acknowledged money donation from 73 subscribers. Thanks for their contribution, but it covered only the mailing cost. Kihara Memorial Foundation supports the publication cost, and the editorial business is on the voluntary of the committee members. We would like to encourage all subscribers and wheat lovers to support WIS with donation, sending information and suggestion.

The report from Drs. Morrison and Raupp on GrainTax Synonymy Tables Project, and Drs. Snape and Hucl on the Business Meeting of the 9th IWGS should be important for all of us. Thanks for their works.

WIS wishes for beautiful crop season as well as great research advances.
