We present a reconstruction of so-called classical, formal or Mendelian genetics using a notation which we believe is more legible than that of earlier accounts, and lends itself easily to computer ...

What is classical genetics? -- Routes to classical genetics: evolution -- Routes to classical genetics: cytology -- Routes to classical genetics: embryology and reproduction -- Routes to classical ...

The history of science is full of tales of unappreciated genius. Indeed, the founder of modern genetics was not fully appreciated for his ideas until decades after his death. His name was Gregor ...

In Mendelian inheritance patterns, you receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. These alleles can be dominant or recessive. Non-Mendelian genetics don’t completely follow ...

LONDON — A novel mode of inheritance has been discovered that may prompt scientists to re-evaluate the genetic basis of disease. In 21 September Science, Nico Katsanis and colleagues, from the Baylor ...

Statistical and quantitative genetics form the backbone of modern biological research by providing the mathematical framework to dissect complex traits. By integrating sophisticated statistical models ...
