In his publication "Experiments in Plant Hybridization," Gregor Mendel first suggested the principle of heredity that "inheritance involves the passing of units of inheritance from parents to offspring." This principle laid the foundation for what we now understand as genes, which carry hereditary traits from one generation to the next.
In 1866, Gregor Mendel published "Experiments in Plant Hybridization", which articulates his basic theory of genetics.
What principle of heredity did Mendel first suggest in his publication?
All living organisms have a form of genetic information known as DNA.
Organisms can possess the trait for several different genes due to their environment.
Organisms that have certain traits for one gene will also have a certain trait for other genes.
