In this paper, we introduce two conjectures on characterizations of endoscopy structures of irreducible generic cuspidal automorphic representations of odd special orthogonal groups in terms of nonvanishing of certain period of automorphic forms. We discuss a relation between the two conjectures and prove that a special case of Conjecture 1 (and hence Conjecture 2) is true.
