*Inheritance Points*
🏵️Father of classicale Genetics *Mendel*
🏵️Father of Modern Genetics *Bateson*
🏵️Father of Experimental Genetics *Morgan*
🏵️Father of human & Physiological Genetics *Garrod*
🏵️Father of Quantitative inheritance *Koleruter*
🏵️Father of Genetic Engineering *Paul Berg*
🏵️The Term Genetic was first coined by *W.Bateson 1905*
🏵️Linkage is the tendency of two *OR* more genes to inherit togather.
🏵️Mendel 's Laws are true only in the absence of *Linkage* and *Gene interaction*
🏵️DNA is hereditary material , which is located inside the *Chromosome*
🏵️Number of *Linkage Groups* in an organism is equal to the *Haploid number of chromosomes,
*For Example:*
Drosophila melanogaster no. Of chromosomes = 8 , hence linkage Groups = n = 4
