In 1963 and 1964, the “second generation” of ordinaries â€“ Bresch (genetics), Drews (microbiology), Grisebach (biochemistry) and Sander (developmental biology of animals) â€“ joined the founding fathers Mohr and Hassenstein. The “third generation” with the ordinaries Elster (limnology), Hertel (molecular biology), Osche (ecology and evolutionary biology of animals), Sitte (cellular biology), Spatz (biophysics) and the female professor Otti Wilmanns (geobotany) followed between 1967 and 1969. Within hardly one decade, the department of biology had become a subject with twelve fields, making the establishment of an “own” faculty in compliance with a new constitution of the university in the year of 1970 a logical consequence. 1363: 149: 141: 24: 1446: 433:
