M. Sheppard, B. Wallace, G. G. Simpson, Rensch, Kurten, Stebbins, et al. 'This Symposium was held to mark the centenary of the publication of the Origin of Species. As Demerec pointed out, the 'first laboratory devoted to the study of Mendelian inheritance was named 'Station for Experimental Evolution' and had been established at Cold Spring Harbor by Charles Davenport. The Station had moved away from evolutionary studies (although Dobzhansky and Mayr, as summer visitors, and Bruce Wallace, as a staff member, had kept some evolutionary studies going through the 1940s) and been transformed into the Carnegie Institution's Department of Genetics. Demerec had come to Department of Genetics in 1923 where he studied unstable genes in Drosophila and was later responsible for the change to bacterial genetics. This was the last Symposium he organized and he retired in 1960 from both his posts at Cold Spring Harbor-as director of the Biological Laboratory and of the Department of Genetics. Demerec remained on Long Island, going first to Brookhaven National Laboratory and then to the C. W. Post campus of Long Island University. This Symposium had a rather similar composition to that held nine years earlier on Origin and Evolution of Man; participants included geneticists, ecologists, anthropologists and paleontologists. But the meeting seems to have had a firmer scientific basis, perhaps because it was not so tightly focused on human evolution. The published volume is notable also for the paucity of complicated equations compared with previous Symposia covering population geneticsneither Sewall Wright or Richard Lewontin, although present, gave papers. The meeting began with presentations by Ernst Mayr and Th. Dobzhansky, each giving masterful overviews of the intertwined histories of genetics and evolutionary studies and the current state of the field. The closing remarks were given by G. Ledyard Stebbins, the eminent plant evolutionist. He pointed out that this diverse group of scientists had reached agreement on concepts 'remarkably similar to those which Darwin himself held'; that is to say, the twentieth-century integration of genetics and evolutionary studies had led to a strengthening of the fundamental tenets of Darwinian evolution, a very satisfactory conclusion to a meeting to celebrate Darwin.'.

Copy of Symposium participant Seymour Pomper, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Tennessee, with his signature and printed name in the list of participants. 'Pomper . . . took his doctorate in microbiology and genetics from Yale University and became a Director of the American food manufacturer, Nabisco.' 'For the 1951 Symposium, Demerec chose to revisit the theme of the first Symposium he had organized, a decade earlier. According to Demerec, between 1941 and 1951, geneticists had in some respects become 'less certain than ever about the physical properties of genes'. The model of genes as objects'strung along chromosomes like beads on a thread' had served geneticists well in the decade preceding 1951, but now several genetic and cytogenetic studies of spontaneous and induced mutations had begun to demand that researchers rethink this model. Genes and chromosomes were both stable elements of inheritance as well as highly dynamic entities capable of undergoing (and withstanding) a great deal of change. The 1951 Symposium featured several talks which touched on this theme. Ed Lewis elaborated on the position effect, that a gene has different effects depending on its neighboring genes. Barbara McClintock gave a further example of the dynamic genome in her talk on the Ac-Ds system in maize. It was Richard Goldschmidt who took up these issues in his remarkable opening presentation for the Symposium. Goldschmidt rejected the conclusion that a mutation at a particular point necessarily meant that there was gene there, and he offered a simile: 'If the A-string on a violin is stopped an inch from the end the tone C is produced. Something has been done to a locus in the stringÉBut nobody would conclude that there is a C-body at that point.' Goldschmidt suggested that in some way gene action was integrated over the whole chromosome. On the other hand, papers by Harriet Ephrussi-Taylor and Rollin Hotchkiss did support the gene as a physical entity-they presented results in confirming Avery's transformation studies of 1944. Their audience did not seem impressed. There were other contentious topics; cytoplasmic inheritance received much attention, especially in a long paper by Sonneborn reviewing the controversial work of Fritz Moewus who had published extensively on cytoplasmic inheritance in Chlamydomonas. His work had been savaged by Philip and Haldane who showed that his results showed far less variation than would have been expected by chance. There were determined efforts to reproduce Moewus's work-including by Moewus himself under careful supervision-but with no success. Moewus is now regarded as '. . . one of the most ambitious cases of fraud in the history of science' (Sapp, 1989). Demerec made an interesting comparison between the 1941 and 1951 Symposia. In 1941, 30% of papers dealt with Drosophila and only 3% with microorganisms; in 1951, 9% used Drosophila and 70% microorganisms. Five years later at the Genetic Mechanisms Symposium, none of the papers on genetic analysis used Drosophila' (CSHL Web site).
