Subject: ICGI: CGI: Update on Cotton Genome Sequencing Worksho
Dear ICGI members,
This is to update you of the upcoming ICGI workshop, announced late
last month, in conjunction with the World Cotton Research Conference-4
in Lubbock, Texas. As you may notice on the posted agenda
Pre-WCRC-4 Discussion Session, the local hosts
have decided to move the venue from the USDA-ARS Cropping Systems
Research Laboratory to the Experimental Sciences Building on Texas
Tech University campus. The session will be promptly from 3:00-5:30 PM
(15:00-17:30 CDT) on Sunday, September 9, 2007. Transportation will be
provided from your conference hotel (NOT the Lubbock Memorial Civic
Center as indicated in the previous email) to the Texas Tech
University campus if you can be in your hotel lobby by 2:30 PM.
Please reply to this email by August 31, 2007 if you plan to attend
this discussion session and indicate whether you will need
transportation from your hotel. We will provide you with a map
direction to the Experimental Sciences Building if you need to get
there by yourself. We thank those who have already responded and we
request all prospective attendees to reply because the local hosts
need to have an accurate head-count for refreshment chartering and
other logistics arrangements. The list of prospective participants
will be also forwarded for the assignment to breakout groups.
NAME: _______________________
INSTITUTION: __________________
COUNTRY: ___________________
HOTEL TO STAY: ________________
[ ] Yes, I plan to attend the ICGI Discussion on Cotton Genome Sequencing.
[ ] I will need transportation from my hotel and have given the hotel name above.
[ ] No, I will not need transportation but need a map direction.
Again, we would encourage you to make an effort to arrive early so
that you will be able to attend this workshop. We look forward to your
participation in the discussion to identify short-term and long-term
goals for sequencing Gossypium genomes.

Subject: ICGI: Cotton Genome Sequencing Information
You probably have received this information via Roy Cantrell's
email. However to be sure that all the membership is informed, we
have posted the announcement of the Bayer-PAG forum to discuss the
sequencing document and the white paper document at
http://algodon.tamu.edu/sequencing.
As a way of background the document follows from the Special Topics
discussion on sequencing (
http://icgi.tamu.edu/meeting/2006) held
at the Research Conference in Brazil. Jeff Chen and his group have
prepared this document for publication in a refereed journal.
They are soliciting input from the cotton community, and it will be
the topic of the Bayer-PAG forum. The role of ICGI with this
effort will be discussed at the Business Meeting, and any
subsequent action will involve input from the membership of ICGI.

Bayer BioScience would like to invite interested public and private
cotton genome researchers to the presentation and discussion of the
Cotton Genome Sequence White Paper. The session will be chaired by
external facilitator and light refreshments will be provided.
The meeting is scheduled for Saturday evening 13 Jan 2007 at the
Plant and Animal Genome Conference. The forum will commence at
6:30 or 7:00 PM. The final details (time and place) will be announced
in the near future.
