In [Cassels, JWS, Rational quadratic forms, p. 333], the autor says: "In fact the elementary proof of Dirichlet's theorem [Selberg (1949)] makes essential use of the existence of genera". In reviewing that Selberg's paper I can't find where the existence of genera is used. Could anyone help me about that subject?
