男人del, Gregor Johann
Introduction
男人del was the first to fashion, by means of a controlled pollination technique and careful statistical analysis of his results, a clear, analytic picture of heredity. His account of the experiments and his conclusions, published in 1866 (tr.Experiments in Plant Hybridization,1926), were ignored during his lifetime. Rediscovered by three separate investigators (Correns, de Vries, and Tschermak) in 1900, Mendel's conclusions have become the basic tenets ofgeneticsand a notable influence in plant and animal breeding.
