Father of Genetics  Monk and teacher.  Experimented with purebred tall and short peas.  Discovered some of the basic laws of heredity.  Studied seven purebred traits in peas.  Called the stronger hereditary factor dominant.  Called the weaker hereditary factor recessive.  Presentation to the Science Society in1866 went unnoticed.  He died in 1884 with his work still unnoticed.  His work rediscovered in 1900.  Known as the “Father of Genetics”.  Monk and teacher.  Experimented with purebred tall and short peas.  Discovered some of the basic laws of heredity.  Studied seven purebred traits in peas.  Called the stronger hereditary factor dominant.  Called the weaker hereditary factor recessive.  Presentation to the Science Society in1866 went unnoticed.  He died in 1884 with his work still unnoticed.  His work rediscovered in 1900.  Known as the “Father of Genetics”.

9. Mendel’s Observations  He noticed that peas are easy to breed for pure traits and he called the pure strains purebreds.  He developed pure strains of peas for seven different traits (i.e. tall or short, round or wrinkled, yellow or green, etc.)  He crossed these pure strains to produce hybrids.  He crossed thousands of plants and kept careful records for eight years.  He noticed that peas are easy to breed for pure traits and he called the pure strains purebreds.  He developed pure strains of peas for seven different traits (i.e. tall or short, round or wrinkled, yellow or green, etc.)  He crossed these pure strains to produce hybrids.  He crossed thousands of plants and kept careful records for eight years.

10. Mendel’s Peas  In peas many traits appear in two forms (i.e. tall or short, round or wrinkled, yellow or green.)  The flower is the reproductive organ and the male and female are both in the same flower.  He crossed pure strains by putting the pollen (male gamete) from one purebred pea plant on the pistil (female sex organ) of another purebred pea plant to form a hybrid or crossbred.  In peas many traits appear in two forms (i.e. tall or short, round or wrinkled, yellow or green.)  The flower is the reproductive organ and the male and female are both in the same flower.  He crossed pure strains by putting the pollen (male gamete) from one purebred pea plant on the pistil (female sex organ) of another purebred pea plant to form a hybrid or crossbred.

11. Mendel’s Results Mendel crossed purebred tall plants with purebred short plants and the first generation plants were all tall. When these tall offspring were crossed the result was a ratio of 3 tall to 1 short.

12. Mendel’s Experiments  He experimentally crosses different strains to develop hybrids.  He then crossed the hybrids and analyzed the results.  He experimentally crosses different strains to develop hybrids.  He then crossed the hybrids and analyzed the results.
