Ghosh: [email protected] Dr. Amitabh Joshi: [email protected] Abstract Canalization denotes the robustness of a trait against genetic or environmental perturbation. Plasticity, in contrast indicates the environmental sensitivity of a trait. Stabilizing selection is thought to increase canalization of a trait, whereas directional selection is often thought to lead to decanalization. However, the relationship between selection, canalization and plasticity remains largely unclear. Experimental evolution is a powerful approach for addressing fundamental questions in evolution. Here, we ask whether long-term directional selection for reduced pre-adult development time in Drosophila melanogaster results in the evolution of increased canalization for development time, the trait under primary selection.

  • Contemporary Issues in Evolutionary Biology
    Journal of Genetics, Vol. 96, No. 3, July 2017, pp. 399–400 DOI 10.1007/s12041-017-0806-7 Contemporary issues in evolutionary biology Preface We are delighted to bring to the readers, a set of peer-reviewed papers on evolutionary biology, published as a special issue of the Journal of Genetics. These papers emanated from ruminations upon and discussions at the Foundations of Evolutionary Theory: the Ongoing Synthesis meeting at Coorg, India, in February 2014, and the Foundations of Biology meetings at Pune, India, in April 2015 and March 2016. One of us (LSS), along with Sutirth Dey (IISER Pune) and Amitabh Joshi (JNCASR, Bengaluru), organized these meetings in order to bring together a diverse set of interested academics to discuss and argue about fundamental issues in the subject. These discussions included, among others, the possible consequences of nonDNA-based inheritance—epigenetics and cultural evolution, niche construction, and developmental mechanisms on our understanding of the evolutionary process, speciation, complexity in biology, and constructing a formal evolutionary theory. This special issue begins with an original article by K. P. Mohanan on the Conceptual Foundations of Evolution- ary Thought, in which evolution is conceptualized as symmetry breaking, thereby attempting to integrate physical, biological (macroevolution), and cultural (societal) evolution. Biological evolution and cultural evolution are fur- ther examined conceptually as the emergence and persistence of traits rather than taxa. Structural and functional constraints are invoked to explain the contrast between the emergence of novelty and the resistance to novelty (per- sistence). The second article presents a review of various species concepts, and thoughts about species concepts versus the delimitation of species.

The details have been provided within the report. ICTS was awarded in 2015 the prestigious ‘Targeted Grants to Institutes’ from the Simons Foundation, USA. The AIRBUS Corporate Foundation grant for an international teaching and research chair entitled ‘Mathematics of Complex Systems’, which ICTS shares with the Centre for Applicable Mathematics, underwent a successful annual review and continues. Both these grants lend enormous encouragement to a fledgling Centre and enhance the ability of ICTS to conduct programs, invite outstanding post- docs and long term visiting professors. The new ICTS Campus has started functioning. The campus is equipped with a modern library that will provide access to books and electronic resources on advanced topics; state-of-the-art computing and networking infrastructure; a data centre with high-speed connectivity and extensive storage facility for doing big-data sciences; conference and lecture halls equipped with high-end audio-video equipment for recording and broadcasting ICTS programs; healthcare, childcare and recreational facilities for members and visitors.
