History of Science Society Annual Meeting San Diego, California 15-18 November 2012
History of Science Society Annual Meeting San Diego, California 15-18 November 2012 Session Abstracts Alphabetized by Session Title. Abstracts only available for organized sessions. Agricultural Sciences in Modern East Asia Abstract: Agriculture has more significance than the production of capital along. The cultivation of rice by men and the weaving of silk by women have been long regarded as the two foundational pillars of the civilization. However, agricultural activities in East Asia, having been built around such iconic relationships, came under great questioning and processes of negation during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as people began to embrace Western science and technology in order to survive. And yet, amongst many sub-disciplines of science and technology, a particular vein of agricultural science emerged out of technological and scientific practices of agriculture in ways that were integral to East Asian governance and political economy. What did it mean for indigenous people to learn and practice new agricultural sciences in their respective contexts? With this border-crossing theme, this panel seeks to identify and question the commonalities and differences in the political complication of agricultural sciences in modern East Asia. Lavelle’s paper explores that agricultural experimentation practiced by Qing agrarian scholars circulated new ideas to wider audience, regardless of literacy. Onaga’s paper traces Japanese sericultural scientists who adapted hybridization science to the Japanese context at the turn of the twentieth century. Lee’s paper investigates Chinese agricultural scientists’ efforts to deal with the question of rice quality in the 1930s. American Motherhood at the Intersection of Nature and Science, 1945-1975 Abstract: This panel explores how scientific and popular ideas about “the natural” and motherhood have impacted the construction and experience of maternal identities and practices in 20th century America. -

International Register (Updated March 5, 2021)
Last updated: March 5, 2021 © Mark L. DeBard, MD, Registrar & International Lilac Society Freek Vrugtman, Registrar Emeritus Assistant Registrars: Claire Fouquet, David Gressley, Tatyana Polyakova International Register and Checklist of Cultivar names in the Genus Syringa L. (Oleaceae) (“Work-in-Progress” Lilac Register) For information on title, copyright, address, table of content, acknowledgements, historical overview, and introduction see Introductory Pages. RELEASE NOTE: This release includes updates to the main Register PDF and Excel files, including a massive revision to the Russian cultivar information as a result of a detailed review by our Assistant Registrar, Tatyana Polyakova. In particular, the Latvian cultivars have been updated and many Kravchenko cultivars from Uzbekistan have been added or revised. Also, multiple cultivars from Kazakhstan as well as those of Makedonskaya and Ihara have been updated or added. In addition, the Registrars have decided to maintain the British English format of cultivar names, based on 40 years of tradition and worldwide usage of the names, while converting the text to American English. This primarily affects abbreviations in the cultivar names, such that in British English, Dr, Mr, Mrs, and Ms are all written without periods after them, but in both British and American English, Mons. and Pres. do have periods. There are actually rules governing this. This release is the basis for the identically dated printed hardcopy release of the Register. It has 3561 entries including 1223 registered lilacs (in bold), 640 more with established but non- registered names, and 669 more with non-established names. There are 1025 entries with synonyms or rejected or unacceptable names. -

International Register and Checklist of Cultivar Names in the Genus Syringa L
Last updated: March 30, 2018 ©FV & RBG International Register and Checklist of Cultivar Names in the Genus Syringa L. (Oleaceae) (“Work-in-Progress” Lilac Register) For information on title, copyright, address, table of content, acknowledgements, historical overview and introduction see Introductory Pages. Introductory notes concerning the entries in the Register and Checklist. The Register and Checklist contains all cultivar names known to the Registrar, and many designations that may be interpreted erroneously as being cultivar names. The name of a cultivar or Group consists of the name of the genus or lower taxonomic unit to which it is assigned together with a cultivar or Group epithet. The name may be written in a variety of equivalent ways (ICNCP-2009, Article 8.1)1. Syringa ‘Excel’, Syringa ×hyacinthiflora ‘Excel’, lilac ‘Excel’, sering ‘Excel’ (in Dutch), lilas ‘Excel’ (in French), and Flieder ‘Excel’ (in German) are names for the same cultivar. A trade designation is not a name but is a device that is usually used for marketing a cultivar or Group in place of its accepted name when the accepted name is not considered suitable for marketing purposes (ICNCP-2009, Article 13.1). Trade designations, including trademarks, appear in small capital letters (e.g. LUDWIG SPAETH). Trade designations, including trademarks, are always to be cited together with, or in juxtaposition to, the accepted name (ICNCP-2009, Article 17.2) (e.g. Syringa LUDWIG SPAETH [‘Andenken an Ludwig Späth’], or TINKERBELLE™ [‘Bailbelle’]). Diacritical marks are integral part of certain languages such as French, German, Latvian and Swedish, where they affect pronunciation. Neglecting umlauts is simply an orthographic error and changes the pronunciation of a name or word; neglecting diacritical marks is unnecessary and awkward. -

The Victorians
The Birmingham Botanical Gardens and Glasshouses The Victorians Introduction The purpose of this booklet is to highlight the opportunities for pupils at Key Stage 2 to study history at The Botanical Gardens. Examples of activity sheets and background information are also included which have been designed to be easily adapted to suit the needs of pupils working at a range of levels. Much of the work at the Botanical Gardens is cross curricular in nature and the activities can easily form the basis of tasks which incorporate other subject areas. Activities: History of the Botanical Gardens A range of artefacts, maps, photographs and books are available which trace the development of the Gardens from Victorian times. Please see the Gardens' Facebook and Twitter pages or visit the library for more information. Victorian Architecture Pupils can look for evidence of new and old structures on buildings such as the glasshouses, bandstand and cottage. Art and Design Pupils can study the use of plants as the basis for designs on e.g. William Morris wallpaper and textiles through sketchbook activities. Spot the difference Find the spot in the Gardens where you can see a view like the one in the picture. What are the differences between the picture drawn in 1875 and the view you see today? E. H Wilson At the age of 21, Ernest Henry Wilson was a young botanist about to become a lecturer at the Royal College of Science. Before he was 40, he had become famous for his travels in the Far East, especially China. What did he do in China? He hunted for plants. -

The Legacy of Collecting Missions to the Valorization of Agro-Biodiversity
Draft version for this Conference use only. Do not quote without author’s permission. The legacy of collecting missions to the valorization of agro-biodiversity Filomena Rocha (Banco Português de Germoplasma Vegetal, INIAV, I.P.) ([email protected]) Carlos Gaspar (Banco Português de Germoplasma Vegetal, INIAV, I.P.) ([email protected]) Ana Maria Barata (Banco Português de Germoplasma Vegetal, INIAV, I.P.) ([email protected]) _____________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The history of the civilizations is deeply linked to the history of agriculture, and this has direct links to germplasm collecting and management. Plant collecting activities date back to the beginning of agriculture, with the first steps of plant domestication. Since the most remote times, mankind has depended on plant species collecting, to address its basic needs. For the same reasons, or for cultural and economic reasons, for millennia, people collected and carried seeds, cuttings, seedlings and plants from the places they visited or settled in, and whenever they inhabited new places, they carried the species they knew and which cultivation they mastered. The germplasm collecting is an historic activity that is used in the conservation of genetic resources, especially species for food and agriculture and represents an activity of primary importance within the genetic resources conservation strategies. Germplasm collecting missions have the following main goals: to prevent genetic erosion; to expand or complete the genetic base available in the existent collections; and to meet specific needs (germplasm for breeding programmes, research or development). Between 1977 and 2014, “Banco Português de Germoplasma Vegetal” (BPGV), the National Genebank, carried out 126 collecting missions in mainland Portugal and in the Autonomous Regions of Madeira and the Azores, which resulted in 12,540 accessions of several species (cereals, grain legumes, vegetables, fibers, fodder and pastures, medicinal and aromatic plants).
