Mendelian Genetics

In the 1860’s, an Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel introduced a new theory of inheritance based on his experimental work with pea plants.  Prior to Mendel, most people believed inheritance was due to a blending of parental ‘essences’, much like how mixing blue and yellow paint will produce a green color.  Mendel instead believed that heredity is the result of discrete units of inheritance, and every single unit (or gene) was independent in its actions in an individual’s genome.  According to this Mendelian concept, inheritance of a trait depends on the passing-on of these units.

Mendelian Genetics is widely regarded as the corner stone of classical genetics. It is a set of primary beliefs relating to the transmission of hereditary characteristic from parent organisms to their offspring; it underlies much of genetics.

The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Biological and Environmental Research has teamed with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture’s Agriculture and Food Research Initiative to fund projects that accelerate plant breeding programs and improve biomass feed stocks by characterizing the genes, proteins, and molecular interactions that influence biomass production. According to a new market research report the global Genotyping Market is expected to reach $17.0 Billion in 2020 from $ 6.2 Billion in 2015, at a healthy CAGR of 22.3% from 2015 to 2020. DALLAS – a new report from Markets and Markets predicts that the global market for genotyping will hit $17 billion by 2020, up from its current $6.2 billion, which translates to a robust 22.3 percent compound annual growth rate for the years 2015-2020. Universities offering Plant Genomics are: Cornell University, University of California—Davis, University of California—Berkeley, Harvard University, Wageningen, University and Research Center, University of Oxford, University of British Columbia, University of Tokyo, University of Florida, University of Cambridge.
