He identified and developed many different true-breeding strains of pea plants, and he studied only those traits that had only two possible outcomes; such as short or tall height, and yellow or green pea color. He also prevented self-fertilization of the pea plants by using a technique called cross-pollination, so that he could control each cross.
He had studied mathematics and probability.
nonmendelian principles
Laws of inheritance evolved from ancient common law that was eventually codified in modern state probate codes.
Gregor Johann Mendel - The Father of Genetics
Gregor Mendel
Mendel showed in his experiments that inherited traits are not passed through the blending of inheritance theory. According to the blending of inheritance theory, an offspring's traits are a blend between the traits of the parent organisms. In Mendel's experiments however, he showed that this was not true, and that inheritance is actually based on genes, through the observation of recessive traits. He observed that an offspring could have a trait that neither of the parents had, which is now explained through both of the parents having the recessive gene for the trait, but not showing it because they are heterozygous dominant. There is a 25% chance that the offspring of two heterozygous dominant parents will produce a homozygous recessive offspring that will show the trait that neither of the parents shows.
he discovered heredity and inheritance
Gregor Mendel is studied because he used to pea plants to discover gene inheritance.
Mendel proved basic ideas on genetics and inheritance, but had nothing whatsoever to do with DNA.
Gregor Mendel
Mendel studied plant inheritance.
Gregor Mendel is the father of genetics.He found the inheritance using pea plants.
Gregor Mendel. "Father or genetics". He was a monk. Link below.
Gregor Mendel was a biologist who studied the inheritance of traits. His laws for this inheritance are combined in Mendelian inheritance, which states that some alleles are dominant and as such some traits are dominant.
