We study homomorphisms form the ring of Siegel modular forms of a given degree to the ring of elliptic modular forms for a congruence subgroup. These homomorphisms essentially arise from the restriction of Siegel modular forms to modular curves. These homomorphisms give rise to linear relations among the Fourier coefficients of a Siegel modular form. We use this technique to prove that dim .
