  4. Gregor Mendel discovered the basic principles of heredity through experiments with pea plants, long before the discovery of DNA and genes. Mendel was an Augustinian monk at St Thomas’s...

  5. By experimenting with pea plant breeding, Gregor Mendel developed three principles of inheritance that described the transmission of genetic traits before anyone knew exactly what genes were.

  6. In this article, we'll see how a nineteenth-century monk named Gregor Mendel instead uncovered the key principles of inheritance using a simple, familiar system: the pea plant. Why didn't Mendel study humans?
