The 20th century has been called “the century of the gene” (Keller, 2000), an era of unprecedented progress in the understanding of inheritance. The 20th century began with the rediscovery of Mendel's laws, witnessed the discovery of the structure and nature of DNA, and concluded with the launching of the human genome project. The result has been an accumulation of genetic information far ...
