1. Manuscripts should follow the standard format for the Newsletter: consult papers in this edition of the Newsletter or the Editor if you are not sure of the format. Regular papers should also include a brief ABSTRACT (about 4 or 5 lines) which contains the following: 1) A statement of the question/hypothesis; 2)The experimental approach and most significant results; and 3) The conclusions.
2. Manuscripts should be double spaced. Three copies of the manuscript should be submitted. DO NOT submit manuscripts by Fax. If you wish to submit your manuscript via e-mail, you should first contact the Editor by e-mail (address below).
3. Authors should include their Fax number and e-mail address with their submission.
4. Accepted and revised manuscripts may be submitted on computer diskette or e-mail for printing. Diskettes are preferred, as format is better preserved. DO NOT send diskettes until an article has been accepted for publication. Please indicate the software (including version number) used to prepare the disk.
5. Make tables and figures as compact as possible. Both should be submitted in final form suitable for publication. Please take steps to prevent them being bent in the mail. Figures should be avoided where words are adequate.

(Bartnik et al. 1981 Curr. Genet. 4:173- 176).
