have voice and vote in all matters properly brought before the Conference
during a regular business meeting to be held during each meeting of the
Conference. The Conference shall meet at a time, generally every four years,
and at a location to be selected by vote of the attending membership at
the previous meeting of the Conference. The Executive Committee, described

as follows:
1. Committee on Nomenclature
and Cataloguing of Oat Genes
This Committee shall consist of three Conference
members appointed by the Chairman of the American Oat Workers Conference.
It shall serve to assign symbols and catalog new genes governing characters
in oats. Such genes will be listed and described in the Oat Newsletter on
an annual basis. The Committee will also be responsible for considering
periodical updating and revision of the original publication on the subject,
which was entitled "A Standardized System of Nomenclature for Genes Governing
Characters of Oats". There shall be no limit of office of committee members.

on current oat research and research needs. Members of the Conference are
encouraged to submit information about their current research programs in
response to an annual request to be made by the Editor of the Oat Newsletter.
The Newsletter shall also serve as a vehicle of publication for the minutes
of the business meetings of the Conference and of the American Oat Workers
Conference Committee as well as for Committee Reports and other Conference
notes. Abstracts of papers presented at meetings of the Conference also
shall be published in the appropriate issues of the Newsletter.
Contributions from countries outside the Conference will be accepted for
inclusion in the Newsletter, and should be encouraged so as to promote the
dissemination of oat research information and news.
The Oat Newsletter shall be distributed to all members of the Conference
and upon request, to other interested oat and cereal crops workers outside
the American Oat Workers Conference. The American Oat Association in conjunction
with the Editor of the Newsletter shall maintain a mailing list for this
purpose and publish it in each Oat Newsletter. An Oat Newsletter Editorial
Committee of four (three researchers and one industry rep) is to be appointed
by the AOWC Chair.
Distinguished
Service to Oat Improvement Award
The American Oat Workers Conference shall confer the "Distinguished Service
to Oat Improvement Award" upon persons in recognition of their outstanding
research contributions and/or meritorious service toward making oats a successful
agricultural species. The recipient(s) of this award shall be nominated
by the Committee previously described as having this charge, and they shall
be elected for the award by a majority vote of the American Oat Workers
Conference Committee. No restriction shall be placed upon whom may receive
the award. However, as a general guide, the award should be presented to
persons who have devoted a significant portion of their professional career
and a significant number of years working with oats through research, extension,
or other professional activities, The number of recipients should not be
limited, but in general, not more than one to three persons would be recognized
at one Conference meeting.
The Award shall be conferred at a regular meeting of the American Oat Workers
Conference. Manifestation of the award shall be denoted by the presentation
of a suitable plaque or certificate to the recipient. A brief (not to exceed
two typewritten pages) statement about the recipient and a photograph of
the recipient shall be printed in the first volume of the Oat Newsletter
after the presentation.
Jennifer Mitchell-Fetch, chair of the awards committee that included Fred
Kolb and Bruce Roskens, reported that the following had been selected by
vote of the AOWC Committee as 2006 recipients of the AOWC Distinguished
Service to Oat Improvement Award: Ronald Barnett, David Hoffman, Solomon
Kibite, Art McElroy, Stephen Molnar, and David Peterson. Biographical
write-ups detailing their contributions are presented elsewhere in the
Newsletter.
Oat Germplasm Committee
The crop germplasm committees provide "sound information and authoritative recommendations" to the National Plant Germplasm System of USDA regarding acquisition, conservation, and use of germplasm.

* Passport and descriptor data for these new accessions can be found on the Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN): http://www.ars-grin.gov/npgs. Certain accessions may not be available from the National Small Grains Collection due to intellectual property rights or insufficient inventories. Crop Science-registered accessions are available by contacting the developers.
Elite Germplasm Requested. Breeders are encouraged to consider submitting their elite lines for inclusion in the National Small Grains Collection (NSGC). Of special interest are lines that have been tested in uniform nurseries, but are not to be released as cultivars. Historically, uniform nurseries been the testing-grounds for the most advanced, elite germplasm from the various public and private breeding programs. Entries in uniform nurseries and other breeding materials that are never released as cultivars are still of potential value to breeders, pathologists, entomologists, and other researchers. Breeders should submit 200-500 g of untreated seed to the NSGC (address: 1691 S. 2700 W., Aberdeen, ID 83210). Seed from outside of the United States should be sent to the USDA Plant Germplasm Quarantine Center (address: Bldg. 580, BARC-East, Beltsville, MD 20705) with enclosed forwarding directions. Provide a description of the germplasm, including: donor (breeder, institution); botanical and common name; cultivar name and/or other identifiers (breeder line or selection number, etc.); pedigree; descriptive information (of important traits and special characteristics); and growth habit. Assignment of a PI number and inclusion in the NSGC makes the germplasm available for research purposes to bona fide scientists in the U.S. and worldwide. Please note that a different procedure applies if you are obtaining Crop Science registration. Follow directions provided by the crop registration committee.
Evaluation of National Small Grains Collection Germplasm
Progress Report for Oats

Systematic evaluation of accessions in the USDA-ARS National Small Grains Collection (NSGC) is coordinated by National Small Grains Germplasm Research Facility (NSGGRF) staff at Aberdeen, Idaho. Descriptors appropriate for each of the principal small grains crop species have been established in collaboration with the Crop Germplasm Committees. Field evaluation data are recorded on such descriptors as growth habit, number of days from planting to anthesis (heading), plant height, panicle density, lodging, straw breakage, shattering, and awn characteristics. Panicles are collected from each evaluation or nursery plot at maturity to facilitate detailed laboratory analysis for seed characters and for more precise determination of panicle descriptors than can be obtained under field conditions. Cooperative oat evaluations continued for reaction to crown rust and smut as well as beta-glucan, protein, and oil content.
Oat descriptors with data entered in the GRIN system are summarized below.
