Gregor Johann Mendel (1822- 1884) used garden peas to study the expression of visible traits.In such a case, the expression of a particular trait is determined by Mendel’s principles of inheritance.The expression of a particular trait is determined by the presence of two alleles contributed by the father and the mother.
The experiments proved that the dominant allele can be determined by observing the phenotypic traits in the offspring but the recessive allele that remains hidden can be passed to the offspring and expressed in later generations. He proposed three laws known as ‘Mendel's laws of Inheritance’. Gregor Johann Mendel, widely known as the ‘Father of Genetics’, conducted hybrid experiments on garden peas and published the results in the year 1860, thereby laying the foundation of genetics. When the alleles are dominant then the trait is expressed but if some traits are absent or not expressed in the child but the allele is present in the parent then it is called a recessive trait. Each parent contributes equally for the expression of a particular trait. are determined by genes that are inherited from the parents. This essentially means that traits like the color of the eyes, hair, skin, etc. We know that a child doesn’t necessarily look like his/her parents but would have their features.
