4 th ISEB CONFERENCE : A CUBist PERSPECTIVE

Highlights:

The Story of Caste and Nutrition in the Indian Paper Wasp : Ropalidia marginata talk by Raghavendra Gadagkar

I dont belive it ,then i made a repeated confirmation of knowledge later it was proven that caste determination in Indian paper wasp had both preimaginal & post imaginal stages ( Sex determination is influenced by both larval and adult stages ).

The set up he made to study the colony character

How flowers are evolved with different colours

Yuval Sapir , his works reveal that how flowers posses different colours,& he found out which gene is responsible for it .I belive this might be one of the prominent discovery in plant science .we can wait until he publish his paper .

There are so many talk related to Fruitfly in connection with evolution . Every talk had a common connection with evolution, remembering the quote by Theodosius Dobzhansky:Nothing in biology make sense except in the light of evolution .

Significance of Home labs…


I understood when Prof. Raghavendra Gadagkar from Centre for Ecological Science tell his story of culturing wasp in their home by using boxes, which was his wife was using in the their kitchen.

Here, quote of famous scientists Obaid Siddiqi proved that Sophistication is required in mind not in lab.
