After the rediscovery of Mendel's work there was a feud between William Bateson and Pearson over the hereditary mechanism, solved by Ronald Fisher in his work "The Correlation Between Relatives on the Supposition of Mendelian Inheritance". Thomas Hunt Morgan discovered sex linked inheritance of the white eyed mutation in the fruit fly ...
Gregor Johann Mendel OSA (/ ˈ m ɛ n d əl /; Czech: Řehoř Jan Mendel; [2] 20 July 1822 [3] – 6 January 1884) was an Austrian [4] [5] biologist, meteorologist, [6] mathematician, Augustinian friar and abbot of St. Thomas' Abbey in Brno (Brünn), Margraviate of Moravia.
Mendelian inheritance (also known as Mendelism) is a type of biological inheritance following the principles originally proposed by Gregor Mendel in 1865 and 1866, re-discovered in 1900 by Hugo de Vries and Carl Correns, and later popularized by William Bateson. [1] These principles were initially controversial.
David P. Bartel (B.A. 1982), US geneticist, discovered many microRNAs regulating gene expression; William Bateson (1861–1926), British geneticist who coined the term "genetics" Erwin Baur (1875–1933), German geneticist, botanist, discovered inheritance of plasmids; George Beadle (1903–1989), US Neurospora geneticist and Nobel Prize-winner
1989: Thomas Cech discovered that RNA can catalyze chemical reactions, [60] making for one of the most important breakthroughs in molecular genetics, because it elucidates the true function of poorly understood segments of DNA. 1989: The human gene that encodes the CFTR protein was sequenced by Francis Collins and Lap-Chee Tsui.

Gregor Mendel, the Father of Genetics William Bateson Ronald Fisher. Particulate inheritance is a pattern of inheritance discovered by Mendelian genetics theorists, such as William Bateson, Ronald Fisher or Gregor Mendel himself, showing that phenotypic traits can be passed from generation to generation through "discrete particles" known as genes, which can keep their ability to be expressed ...
Wiener's theory is that Rh inheritance is controlled as follows: There is one Rh locus at which occurs one Rh gene, but this gene has multiple alleles. For example, one gene R1 produces one agglutinogen (antigen) Rh1 which is composed of three "factors": rh', Rh(o), and hr' '. The three factors are analogous to C, D, and e respectively in the ...
