Summary:

Genetics has now assumed a central role in biology, as an understanding of gene structure and expression is important in the study of cell biology, biochemistry, microbiology and biotechnology. The historical development of genetics is conventionally divided into four phases. The first is the classical phase of Mendelian or transmission genetics which deals with the transmission of genes from generation to generation as deduced by the observation f different traits or phenotypes, and genetic recombination. The second phase, cytogenetics, deals with the correlation of genetic and cytological (e
