DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sophie Juliane Veigl\nhosted by Nick Barton\nAbstract:
  Researchers are confronted with the extragenetic heritability of phenotyp
 es across many subdisciplines of genetics. In such cases\, however\, it is
  unclear which processes are responsible for the transgenerational stabili
 ty of phenotypes. One potential explanation is that similar to the transmi
 ssion of DNA\, other entities\, such as histones\, RNA\, proteins\, or who
 le cells (e.g.\, microbiota)\, are also transmitted and causally responsib
 le for parent-offspring similarities. This explanation is in many cases un
 satisfactory\, though\, since most candidate entities do not possess faith
 ful replication and distribution mechanisms similar to DNA. Could such ent
 ities nevertheless be units of heredity? I will argue that this is the cas
 e\, but only if their transmission is not considered a necessary constitue
 nt of heredity. Instead\, I propose that the reconstitution of traits in s
 ubsequent generations makes the transmission of entities obsolete.
