But not until an obscure Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel began planting peas in his monastery's garden in the mid-19th century were the universal laws of heredity worked out. By tallying up the variations in the offspring peas, Mendel determined that traits are passed from generation to generation with mathematical precision in small, separate packets, which subsequently became known as genes (from the Greek word for race...
Using the humble pea, an obscure Austrian monk named Gregor Johann Mendel proved that living things pass their characteristics to later generations with mathematical regularity-almost as if the formula for each trait were conveyed in a separate little package. Last week, more than a century later, a team of young Harvard researchers reported that they had finally zeroed in on that Mendelian package. For the first time, science had isolated a single gene...
