This policy transition was controversial, causing friction with U.S. allies, with the nuclear power industry, and with Congress. Early in his presidential campaign, Carter criticized the excessive federal financial commitment to developing plutonium-based reactors and adopted the view that the weapons proliferation risks of plutonium economy technologies were serious and needed to be addressed.

    Interdisciplinary Evolution Research 2 Emanuele Serrelli Nathalie Gontier Editors Macroevolution Explanation, Interpretation and Evidence Interdisciplinary Evolution Research Volume 2 Series editors Nathalie Gontier, Lisbon, Portugal Olga Pombo, Lisbon, Portugal [email protected] About the Series The time when only biologists studied evolution has long since passed. Accepting evolution requires us to come to terms with the fact that everything that exists must be the outcome of evolutionary processes. Today, a wide variety of academic disciplines are therefore confronted with evolutionary problems, ranging from physics and medicine, to linguistics, anthropology and sociology. Solving evolutionary problems also necessitates an inter- and transdisciplinary approach, which is why the Modern Synthesis is currently extended to include drift theory, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, hybridization, epigenetics and punctuated equilibria theory. The series Interdisciplinary Evolution Research aims to provide a scholarly platform for the growing demand to examine specific evolutionary problems from the perspectives of multiple disciplines. It does not adhere to one specific academic field, one specific school of thought, or one specific evolutionary theory. Rather, books in the series thematically analyze how a variety of evolutionary fields and evolutionary theories provide insights into specific, well-defined evolutionary problems of life and the socio-cultural domain. Editors-in-chief of the series are Nathalie Gontier and Olga Pombo. The

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1985 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. THEODOSIUS DOBZHANSKY January 25, 1900-December 18, 1975 BY FRANCISCO J. AYALA HEODOSIUS DOBZHANSKY was born on January 25, 1900 Tin Nemirov, a small town 200 kilometers southeast of Kiev in the Ukraine. He was the only child of Sophia Voinarsky and Grigory Dobrzhansky (precise transliteration of the Russian family name includes the letter "r"), a teacher of high school mathematics. In 1910 the family moved to the outskirts of Kiev, where Dobzhansky lived through the tumultuous years of World War I and the Bolshevik revolu- tion. These were years when the family was at times beset by various privations, including hunger. In his unpublished autobiographical Reminiscences for the Oral History Project of Columbia University, Dobzhansky states that his decision to become a biologist was made around 1912. Through his early high school (Gymnasium) years, Dobzhansky became an avid butterfly collector. A schoolteacher gave him access to a microscope that Dob- zhansky used, particularly during the long winter months. In the winter of 1915—1916, he met Victor Luchnik, a twenty- five-year-old college dropout, who was a dedicated entomol- ogist specializing in Coccinellidae beetles.

    GENETICS OF NATURAL POPULATIONS. XV. RATE OF DIFFUSION OF A MUTANT GENE THROUGH A POP- ULATION OF DROSOPHILA PSEUDOOBSCURA THEODOSIUS DOBZHANSKY AND SEWALL WRIGHT' Columbia University, New York, and University of Chicago, Chicago Received February 6, 1947 INTRODUCTION XPERIMENTS on dispersion rates in Drosophila pseudoobscura have been E described by DOBZHANSKYand WRIGHT(1943). These experiments, car- ried out during the summers of 1941 and 1942 on Mount San Jacinto, Cali- fornia, consisted in releasing suitably marked flies at a certain point on an experimental field, and then for several days recording the numbers of the flies that visited banana traps placed at various distances from the point of the release. The data so obtained permitted estimation of (a) average distances travelled by the flies on days with different temperatures, (b) absolute densities of wild Drosophila pseudoobscura on the field at the time of the experiment, and (c) rates of decline of the numbers of marked flies with time. The drawback of the above experiments is that they describe the speed of dispersion of the released flies and the status of the wild population during only one season of the year. It should be noted that the rate of diffusion of the flies is greatly increased by increasing temperatures, and that in the mountain forests of California the fly populations reach maximal densities in mid- summer. The conditions prevailing during the seasons when the environment is less favorable to the flies remained unknown. To a geneticist the conditions during the latter seasons are most interesting. A new experiment was consequently performed in 1945-1946 at Mather, in the Sierra Nevada of California.

  • Spreading the Evolutionary Synthesis: Theodosius Dobzhansky and Genetics in Brazil
    Genetics and Molecular Biology, 27, 3, 467-475 (2004) Copyright by the Brazilian Society of Genetics. Printed in Brazil www.sbg.org.br Spreading the evolutionary synthesis: Theodosius Dobzhansky and genetics in Brazil Aldo Mellender de Araújo Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Instituto Latino-Americano de Estudos Avançados, Instituto de Biociências e Grupo Interdisciplinar em Filosofia e História das Ciências, Departamento de Genética, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil. Abstract The so-called Evolutionary Synthesis, the present paradigm for evolutionary explanations, was established during the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. One of the leading scientists contributing to this was Theodosius Dobzhansky, a Russian born geneticist who emigrated to the United States of America in 1927 to study with Thomas Hunt Morgan. He was also responsible for the development of Drosophila genetics in Brazil, which was the main organism employed in experimental studies of evolution. Dobzhansky had several opportunities to visit Brazil starting in 1943, to do field and laboratory work as well as teaching. All these activities were fundamental in the spreading of new concepts, methodology, and objectives of the Synthesis to a new audience. This paper discusses the results of the interaction between Dobzhansky and a group of young Brazilian researchers, particularly from the University of São Paulo. Key words: evolutionary synthesis, Brazilian genetics, Dobzhansky, Drosophila genetics. Received: March 19, 2003; Accepted: March 8, 2004. Introduction different European countries, the one by Smocovitis is The so-called Evolutionary Synthesis, or simply the mainly concerned with Anglo-American contribution. This Synthesis, was a scientific movement started in the 1920s later approach was criticized by Reif et al.
