Reginald Punnett created the Punnett square, an easy way to calculate the variety of genetic combinations that will be produced by the breeding of two organisms. Punnett published the first account of gene linkage, which is the tendency for DNA sequences that are close together on a chromosome to be inherited together. He also helped unearth the connection of Mendel's law with statistics and why if dominant traits are dominant, why they aren't visible in every person. Working with the genetics of sweet peas, maize, and poultry, Punnett even developed new breeds.

Hugo de Vries conducted hybridization experiments that were extremely similar to Gregor Mendel's work, without having read Mendel's papers prior to doing so. He published the results of his experiments in French and German in 1900, without mentioning Mendel (he did change his German paper to mention Mendel later on).  Thus, Hugo de Vries was one of the scientists who re-discovered Mendel's law.

Sir Archibald Edward Garrod was a doctor. He studied the disorder alkaptonuria and later published the first account of recessive inheritance in human beings. He also was the first to come up with the idea that diseases were caused by faulty chemical pathways in the body. ]]> 2017-04-08 01:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/tldcampbell389/3ixmh7set111/wish/165484239
