Our article published in peer-reviewed Journal "Communicative & Integrative Biology". A few major points discussed in the paper:
(1) Brain is not the source of consciousness.
(2) Consciousness is ubiquitous in all living organisms, starting from bacteria to human beings.
(3) The individual cells in the multicellular organisms are also individually cognitive entities.
(4) Proposals like “artificial life”, “artificial intelligence”, “sentient machines” and so on are only fairytales because no designer can produce an artifact with the properties like internal teleology (Naturzweck) and formative force (bildende Kraft).
(5) The material origin of life and objective evolution are only misconceptions that biologists must overcome.
I am also working with genetic diversity studies in plants. I am trying to use DARwin Software presently (earlier used to work with NTSYSpc software). Can some one clarify me is the scoring and generating the input EXCEL file is same for DARwin and NTSYS softwares?? Can some one send me a sample copy of the data scoring sheet for the DARwin software (I have a total of 24 varieties, screened with 25 SSR's and 12 ISSR primers). Thank you in advance.
