Published online 24 November 2017 Abstract. Right from the beginning, genetics has been an international venture, with international networks involving the collaboration of scientists across continents. Janaki Ammal’s career illustrates this. This paper traces her scientific path by situating it in the context of her relationships with J. B. S. Haldane and C. D. Darlington. Keywords. science; empire; India.

Genetic experiments, guided by these principles, C. D. Darlington (Harman 2004). expanded rapidly in the years between 1900 and 1921. The results of these studies provided a solid conceptual framework into which subsequent results could be fitted.

  • Edavaleth Kakkat Janaki Ammal E K Janaki Ammal (By C V Subramanian)
    1 Edavaleth Kakkat Janaki Ammal E K Janaki Ammal (by C V Subramanian) anaki Ammal was born in the year 1897, in Tellichery, Kerala, in a cultured middle class family. Her father was a sub-judge Jin what was then the Madras Presidency. She had six broth- ers and five sisters. After schooling in Tellichery, she moved to Madras where she obtained the bachelor’s degree from Queen Mary’s College, and an honours degree in Botany from Presidency College in 1921. She then taught at Women’s Christian College (WCC), Madras, with a sojourn as a Barbour Scholar at the University of Michigan in the USA where she obtained her master’s degree in 1925. Returning to India, she continued to teach at the WCC, but went to Michigan again as the first Oriental Barbour Fellow and obtained her D.Sc. in 1931. She returned as Professor of Botany at the Maharaja’s College of Science, Trivandrum, and taught there from 1932 to 1934. From 1934 to 1939 she worked as geneticist at the Sugarcane Breeding Institute, Coimbatore. From 1940 to 1945 she worked as Assistant Cytologist at the John Innes Horti- cultural Institution in London, and as cytologist at the Royal Horticultural Society at Wisley from 1945 to 1951. On the invitation of Jawaharlal Nehru, she returned to 2 India in 1951 to reorganize the Botanical Survey of India (BSI). From then onwards, Ammal was in the service of the government of India in various capacities including heading the Central Bo- tanical Laboratory at Allahabad, and was officer on special duty at the Regional Research Laboratory in Jammu.

  • E. K. Janaki Ammal and the Rose, Dedicated to Her Girija Viraraghavan, 3
    E. K. Janaki Ammal and the rose, dedicated to her Girija Viraraghavan, 3. November 2018 NOVEMBER 4th is her birth date Many of you may not have heard of the scientist E.K. Janaki Ammal. But if you are a plant breeder, interested in the genetics of plants, their chromosome numbers and their ploidy ( diploid , meaning 2 sets of chromosomes, triploid, meaning 3 sets and tetraploids , meaning 4 sets) in order to make meaningful crosses, you would certainly know her name because for many decades she worked relentlessly in laboratories, poring over all plant species to work out their internal details. Her monumental work can be seen in the book she collaborated with Dr C D Darlington titled Chromosome Atlas of All Cultivated Plants. The first edition was printed in 1945.This is referred to as a Bible among plant scientists. E K Janaki Ammal was a brilliant cytogeneticist who battled great odds ( she was a woman, an Indian of mixed heritage—of the so called ‘low’ caste of Ezhavas of Kerala, but also with a grandfather who was an Englishman and a judge in British India - in the early 20th century) to achieve outstanding success in her field. Born in 1897, in Thalassery, Kerala, her judge father ensured she pursued her education..and boy, did she do him proud.. a Bachelor’s and then a Master’s degree in Botany from Presidency College Madras in 1921 was followed by a Barbour scholarship for another Master’s degree at the University of Michigan USA in 1925.In 1931 Michigan University conferred an honorary doctorate (DSc.

    THE MOTHER OF MODERN BOTANY IN INDIA A BIOGRAPHICAL JOURNEY OF DR. EDAVALATH KAKKAT JANAKI-AMMAL =================================================== The use of this book provided on the VVM website (VVM.ORG.IN) is limited to viewing, downloading, temporary storing and printing for individual, non-commercial, educational purposes only. ==================================================== PREFACE This book is a result of information from several accounts of materials from letters of correspondences of Dr Janaki with her colleagues, details provided by family members and published scientific literature. This book also has benefited by the research work performed by my mother Nirmala James who is an author of the recent book published in Malayalam language on the life of E K Janaki Ammal, the book is titled - E K Janaki Ammal; Aadya Indian Sasya Sasthranjha (E K Janaki Ammal; First Indian Botanist). There are six chapters in this book, that summarizes the life and contribution of E K Janaki Ammal, who can be considered as the mother of the modern botany in India. She gave direction to the Botanical Survey of India and has contributed significantly to the development of scientific research in plant biology.
