Conference Program - Deutsche Zoologische Gesellschaft eV
German Zoological Society 105th Annual Meeting Conference Program September 21 – 24, 2012 University of Konstanz, Germany Welcome Sponsored by Welcome Dear Friends of the Zoological Sciences! At a Glanc Welcome to Konstanz, to the 105th annual meeting of the German Zoological Society (Deutsche Zoologische Gesellschaft, DZG) – it is a great pleasure and an honor to have you here as our guests! We are delighted to have presentations of the best and most recent research in Zoology from Germany. The emphasis this year is on evolutionary biology and neurobiology, reflecting the research foci the host laboratories from the University of Konstanz, but, as every year, all Fachgruppen of our society are represented – and this promises to be a lively, diverse and interesting conference. You will recognize the standard schedule of our yearly DZG meetings: invited talks by the Fachgruppen, oral presentations organized by the Fachgruppen, keynote speakers for all to be inspired by, and plenty of time and space to meet and discuss in front of posters. This year we were able to attract a particularly large number of keynote speakers from all over the world. Furthermore, this year we have added something new to the DZG meeting: timely symposia about genomics, olfaction, and about Daphnia as a model in ecology and evolution. Also, a symposium entirely organized by the PhD-Students of our International Max Planck Research School “Organismal Biology” complements the program. We hope that you will have a chance also to take advantage of the touristic offerings of beautiful Konstanz and the Bodensee. The lake is clean and in most places it is easily accessed for a swim, so don’t forget to bring your swim suits. A record turnout of almost 600 participants who have registered for this year’s DZG meeting is a testament both to the attractiveness of Konstanz for scientific and touristic reasons alike. Our hope is that this year’s DZG meeting will contribute to a further strengthening of the scientific standing of Zoology in Germany. We also hope that this conference will provide an opportunity in particular for young scientist to showcase their best research not only nationally, but also internationally. We would like to thank the sponsors for their valuable financial contributions, the DZG and in particular Sabine Giessler for help in organizing this event. The University of Konstanz provided substantial support in various forms without which this meeting would not have been possible - this is much appreciated. In particular, we would like to thank Mrs. Anne Zitzelsberger from our “events management” for her commitment and skills in organizing this meeting. As local organizers we are glad to have you here, and we are looking forward to four days of excellent science! We hope that you will enjoy your stay in Konstanz and that you will be stimulated by the exciting research that you will be able to hear and see at this year’s meeting of the Deutsche Zoologische Gesellschaft.

Neu Satellite Symposia ANN Daphnia Genomics IMPRS Olfaction MIKROS KOPIE ULTRA ZENTRI FUGA TION ALLGE MEINER LABOR BEDARF City of Constance With a population of over 80,000 inhabitants and a land area of 54 km² (encompassing a total of 15 city districts spanning both sides of the out-flowing Rhine) Constance is the largest city on Lake Constance. Situated in the very south of Germany, Constance shares its border with the Swiss neighbouring city of Kreuzlingen. Keynote Boasting a 34 km long city shoreline, Constance charms and captivates both tourists and locals alike. The city´s international flair and more than 3,300 shops and businesses contribute to its reputation as an attractive and appealing science and business location. BB DB Eco EB Port entry of Constance with the "Imperia" Constance´s roots date back to antiquity - traces of civilization dating back to the late Stone Age, Roman settlements around 50 AD, and an economically prosperous Middle Ages. But is was from 1414-1418 with the `Council of Constance´ that the city gained fame. The `Council´ brought an end to the Three-Popes Controversy and, with it, the election of Pope Martin V. Prior to 1414, 6,000 people lived in Constance. During the `Council of Constance´ the number of inhabitants, many of whom themselves council participants, soared to a staggering 80,000. Traditional hotels and well-known taverns and guesthouses indulge their guests year-round with culinary delights from the Lake Constance region, be it from lake or Lake of Constance with the alps in the background land. This lively university town makes attending a conference in Constance even that much more interesting. Virtually all nooks and crannies of the city impart a sense of past-meets-present. A good example is the historic old town (Niederburg) with its picturesque alleyways ideal for a meandering walkabout or a downtown shopping spree. www.ScienceServices.de General information Famous tourist attractions and places of interest are easily and quickly reached from Constance. A few of the top attractions are: Mainau Island (the flower island) and two UNESCO World Heritage Sites - Reichenau Island (Benedictine Mo Neu Phy ZS Satellite Symposia ANN Daphnia Genomics IMPRS Olfaction General Informations General information Keynote BB DB Eco EB Mo Neu Keynote Monastery Island) and the Pile Dwelling Museum (an open air museum of reconstructed Stone and Bronze Age stilt houses) in Unteruhldingen. Southwest German Philharmonic Orchestra concerts, museum visits (Archaeological, Natural History and History, Art and Culture, to name a few), the City Theatre, Sea Life Constance, art exhibitions and traditional festivals such as the "Konstanzer Fasnacht" (Shrove Tuesday Carnival) and the "Konstanzer Seenachtsfest" (Lake Night Festival) with its spectacular fireworks display will quickly fill any free days in your cultural calendar. Key Note and Special Guest Talks Using Constance as a base, you can easily explore nearby cities and towns. In less than an hour, you can either travel by train to Zurich or sail by catamaran to Friedrichshafen. Key Note Chair: Giovanni Galizia A mild climate, the internationality of the "3-Lands-Lake" and the unique ambience of a city rich in tradition all help to make Constance so beautiful.

Konstanz as venue is a fortunate choice for us given the strong neurobiological groups at Konstanz University that use arthropods as model organisms, as well as the nice surroundings and the vicinity to Austria and Switzerland.

Owing to their abundance in all kinds of standing water bodies around the globe and their high grazing activity on the phytoplankton they provide a crucial link between primary and secondary production and thus are considered as keystone species in freshwater food webs. Their high ecological relevance combined with the fact that their biology is highly suitable for scientific experimentation (short life cycle, easy to maintain, clonal reproduction, etc.) has led to a vast knowledge of their ecology. Daphnia species are intensively used as models in various fields, such as ecophysiology (e.g. adaptation to pH or temperature), chemical ecology (e.g. response to kairomones), ecotoxicology (e.g. ability to cope with xenobiotics), nutritional ecology (e.g. requirements for essential nutrients) and evolutionary research (e.g. population genetics, parasite – host interactions, phenotypic plasticity). The recently published genome of Daphnia pulex, the first crustacean genome, has opened new avenues to explore the genetic basis of environmentally induced physiological adaptation and has considerably stimulated Daphnia research. With this session, we aim to highlight recent advances and new perspectives of Daphnia research. We hope to attract biologist of all fields using Daphnia as a model in their own research. We aim to create an inspiring gathering of fellow scientists, thereby providing insights in recent advances and new perspectives of Daphnia research, but also want to bring the Daphnia model closer to more terrestrial-oriented biologist.

The link between the phenotype and genotype is now in reach and we can begin to explore the genetic basis of adaptive changes in organisms. It is now possible to address also interesting questions about whether de novo mutations or standing genetic variation led to adaptive changes in the genomes of animals and whether mutations in regulatory elements or in coding portions of protein-coding genes play a predominant role more often during adaptive phenotypic changes.
