Curiously, Mendel's later studies on Hieracium (hawkweed) are usually seen as a frustrating failure, because it is assumed that they were intended to confirm the segregation ratios he found in Pisum Had this been his intention, such a confirmation wou...

In 1843, while a monk in the Augustian St Thomas?s Abbey in Brünn, Austria, now Brno, Czech Repubic, Mendel examined the physical appearance of the abbey?s pea plants ( Pisum sativum [4]) and noted inconsistencies between what he saw and what the blending theory of inheritanc...
متن کاملThe Mendel - Fisher Controversy
Gregor Mendel (1822–1884) is regarded as the founder of modern genetics. His experiments on pea plants reported in 1865 established the principles of segregation and of independent assortment. The former states that variation for contrasting traits is associated with a pair of factors that segregate to individual reproductive cells. The latter states that two or more of these factor-pairs assor...
