U.S.-Australia Joint Seminar: Ecological and Evolutionary Genetics of Drosophila / Armidale, N.S.W., Australia / January 1989.

该奖项将支持一个研讨会，“生态和进化 果蝇的遗传学”，由William T. 锡拉丘兹大学的斯塔默教授和 新英格兰大学，阿米代尔，西北。 参与者将 1989年1月在新英格兰大学开会讨论 目前的工作，并考虑新的美国-澳大利亚合作社 研究项目，在人口生物学，生物化学， 遗传学和分子遗传学。 讲习班的总主题将是学科的合并 一个连贯的结构来研究进化。 更好的 了解遗传物质的组织和维持 变化预计会出现。 这样的理解是必要的 为了在育种计划中更有效地操作， 防治害虫。

This award will support a seminar, "Ecological and Evolutionary Genetics of Drosophila", organized jointly by Prof. William T. Starmer of Syracuse University and Prof. J.S.F. Barker, of the University of New England, Armidale, N.S.W. Participants will meet in January 1989 at the University of New England to discuss current work, and to consider new U.S.-Australia cooperative research projects, in the fields of population biology, biochemical genetics, and molecular genetics. The overall theme of the workshop will be the merging of disciplines into a coherent structure for the study of evolution. A better understanding of the organization and maintenance of genetic variation is epected to emerge. Such an understanding is necessary for more efficient manipulation in breeding programs and in the control of insect pests.
