Walton Sutton was an American geneticist known for his work in the field of chromosomes and heredity, particularly the Sutton-Boveri model, which proposed that chromosomes carry genetic material. Theodore Boveri was a German biologist who independently contributed to this model, highlighting the role of chromosomes in inheritance and emphasizing the importance of their structure and behavior during cell division. Together, their research laid the groundwork for modern genetics and our understanding of the chromosomal basis of inheritance.

Walter Sutton contributed to genetics by proposing the chromosome theory of inheritance, which suggested that chromosomes carry hereditary information. He also played a key role in observing the behavior of chromosomes during cell division, helping to establish the link between Mendel's laws of inheritance and the behavior of chromosomes. His work laid the foundation for our understanding of how genetic traits are passed from one generation to the next.
Walter Stanborough Sutton was an American geneticist. He discovered that an organism has half the number of chromosomes in sex cells that it has in its body cells. A geneticist is a branch in science about the difference in living organisms. Sutton was born in Utica, New York on April 5, 1877. At age ten, Sutton moved with his family to Russell County, Kansas, where he attended public schools. He studied engineering at the University of Kansas, beginning in 1896. After his younger brother's death from typhoid in 1897, he made an essential change in the course of his education that would eventually lead him to the study of medicine and to his discoveries in genetics. He received Bachelor and Master degrees from the University of Kansas. Sutton then attended Columbia University and obtained the highest university degree, in medicine in 1907. He died on November 10, 1916. Sutton's name will always be associated with that of Theodor Boveri. They are jointly credited with having proposed, independently in 1902, the chromosome theory of inheritance.
