Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1907, this work by noted botanist George Henslow explores the controversial topic of whether and how acquired traits are passed down from one generation of plants to the next. Drawing on extensive experimentation and observation, Henslow argues that acquired characteristics do not play a significant role in heredity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heredity of Acquired Characters in Plants The object of this book is to prove that Evolution - so far as Plants are concerned - depends upon the Inheritance of Acquired Characters. This was Darwin's contention. Dr Weismann and his followers assert that no such characters can ever be hereditary unless the influence of the environment can reach and affect the reproductive organs, or his hypothetical substance "germ-plasm." As all the characters of the vegetative system, or the soma of plants, which are regarded as specific, are acquired long before any reproductive organs exist at all, and therefore before any vegetative cell has begun to assume a reproductive character, Dr Weismann's proviso is inappplicable to plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are genes? What do genes do? These seemingly simple questions are in fact challenging to answer accurately. As a result, there are widespread misunderstandings and over-simplistic answers, which lead to common conceptions widely portrayed in the media, such as the existence of a gene 'for' a particular characteristic or disease. In reality, the DNA we inherit interacts continuously with the environment and functions differently as we age. What our parents hand down to us is just the beginning of our life story. This comprehensive book analyses and explains the gene concept, combining philosophical, historical, psychological and educational perspectives with current research in genetics and genomics. It summarises what we currently know and do not know about genes and the potential impact of genetics on all our lives. Making Sense of Genes is an accessible but rigorous introduction to contemporary genetics concepts for non-experts, undergraduate students, teachers and healthcare professionals.

Download or read book Lamarck's Revenge written by Peter Ward and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting explanation of epigenetics, offering startling insights into our inheritable traits. In the 1700s, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck first described epigenetics to explain the inheritance of acquired characteristics; however, his theory was supplanted in the 1800s by Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection through heritable genetic mutations. But natural selection could not adequately explain how rapidly species re-diversified and repopulated after mass extinctions. Now advances in the study of DNA and RNA have resurrected epigenetics, which can create radical physical and physiological changes in subsequent generations by the simple addition of a single small molecule, thus passing along a propensity for molecules to attach in the same places in the next generation. Epigenetics is a complex process, but paleontologist and astrobiologist Peter Ward breaks it down for general readers, using the epigenetic paradigm to reexamine how the history of our species-from deep time to the outbreak of the Black Plague and into the present-has left its mark on our physiology, behavior, and intelligence. Most alarming are chapters about epigenetic changes we are undergoing now triggered by toxins, environmental pollutants, famine, poor nutrition, and overexposure to violence. Lamarck's Revenge is an eye-opening and provocative exploration of how traits are inherited, and how outside influences drive what we pass along to our progeny.
