What is Gregor Mendel known to be the father of?
Asked by Wiki User
Gregor Johann Mendel is considered as the father of genetics because of his experiments with pea plants, whereby he discovered recessive and dominant "characteristics". His work was more or less forgotten for decades. The word "genes" was thought up later.
Gregor Mendel, who is known as the "father of genetics/father of genetic discovery/father of modern genetics", was inspired by both his professors at university and his colleagues at the monastery to study variation in plants, and he conducted his study in the monastery's garden. Between 1856 and 1863 Mendel cultivated and tested some 29,000 pea plants (i.e. Pisum sativum). This study showed that one in four pea plants had purebred recessive alleles, two out of four were hybrid and one out of four were purebred dominant. His experiments brought forth two generalizations, the Law of Segregation and the Law of Independent Assortment, which later became known as Mendel's Laws of Inheritance.
