Kowles gives seminars at WSU

Dr. Dick Kowles, biology department, gave two seminars at Winona State University on Friday, Sept. 28, as part of its homecoming activities. Dr. Kowles talked to genetics students about a long ongoing research project involving the mode of DNA replication in developing endosperm tissue in maize. He estimates that 18 to 20 SMU students have worked on the project over the years, contributing a vast amount of information on the system.
