Dear Dorrie, Sook, Bert,

 

This is really bad news. I think that we cannot afford to loose such a useful resource, that would be a clear step back in the progress of Rosaceae genomics. We have to start thinking of ways to keep the GDR going.

Thanks for all your efforts and for having made available to us this useful tool.

 

Best regards,

 

Pere

Tema: [GDR] GDR Renewal

 

Hi Folks,

 

NSF are unable to support a renewal for GDR this year although a small supplementary award to the original grant may be possible. While it is very dissapointing, we will continue to do what we can while we pursue other sources of funding but please be aware we don't have any resources available to us at the current time.

 

You have been a really great community to work with and we appreciate all your support as we have built the database.

 

Cheers

 

 

Dorrie, Sook and Bert
