Laws of Inheritance
The Laws of Inheritance founded by Gregor Mendel, an Augustinian monk and a high school teacher. His main field was natural science, however he became famous because of his sweet peas research.The results of Mendel´s research were summarized in the monograph - Experiments with Plant Hybrids. At the beginning was the foundation of an atypical variant of flower, which Mendel planted with the typical one. Their offspring get traits from both of the parents and this was the first step on the genetic way. It took him more than seven years of his life and thousands of experiments in mice, plants and sweet peas, before he finally discovered the law of inheritance as we know it today.
