Th. Dobzhansky played a special role in the reception and development of the “synthetic theory of evolution,” as well as in the establishment of scientific connections between Soviet and U.S. evolutionists, and first and foremost, geneticists. These connections greatly influenced the development of Soviet genetics, of evolutionary theory and evolutionary biology as a whole, and in particular the restoration of Soviet genetics in the late 1960s. A discussion of Dobzhansky’s correspondence and collaboration with colleagues in his native country, moreover, allows for an improved understanding of the complex and dramatic history of Soviet genetics and evolutionary theory. It also provides novel insights into the interactions between scientists and authorities in the Soviet Union (USSR).

th。Dobzhansky 和苏联进化生物学的发展

th。Dobzhansky 在接受和发展“综合进化论”，以及在苏联和美国进化论者，首先是遗传学家之间建立科学联系方面发挥了特殊作用。这些联系极大地影响了苏联遗传学、进化理论和进化生物学的整体发展，特别是 1960 年代后期苏联遗传学的恢复。此外，通过讨论 Dobzhansky 与他祖国同事的通信和合作，可以更好地了解苏联遗传学和进化理论的复杂而戏剧性的历史。它还提供了对苏联 (USSR) 科学家与当局之间互动的新颖见解。
