Gregor Mendel
Mendels paper of inheritance is published. He discovered that genes come in pari, one from each parent. -
Fredrich Mienscher
Nuclein, also know as the modern day DNA was discovered by Fredrich Miescher. This can be described as a acidc substance found within the cells nuclei. -
Carl Correns, Hugo de Vries and Erich von Tschermak-Seysenegg
These three researchers resterected Gregor Mendels theories on inheritences, they also translated his famour paper into English -
Sutton Boveri
Sutton Boveri proposes the chromosome theory of heredity. He discovered different chromosome are the not the same as one another. 1902 was also the first human disease was discovered which was caused by genetics -
Thomas Morgan
Thomas Morgan was the scientist well known for his chromosonal theory of inheritance -
Hermann Muler
Hermann Muller showed the world that it was possible for x-rays to enduce mutations. -
Geroge Beadle and Edward Tatum
Geroge Beadle and Edward Tatum disovered the "one gene one protein" theory -
Edwin Chargaff
Edwin Chargaff discovered that there are exact equal amounts of A and T as well as C and G -
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase
DNA is as molecule at which meditate heredity as shown by Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase -
James Watson, Rosalind Franklin, Maurice Wilkins and Francis Crick
DNA can represented in the shape of a double helixs, this model was made by James Watson and Francis Crick, they got their information they needed from Mauirice Wilkins, and gathered the information from Rosalind Franklins X-ray crystallography photographs -
Franklin Stahl and Matthew Meselson
Franklin Stahl and Matthew Meselson proved James Watson and Fransic Crick's DNA model structure. -
Marshall Nirenburg
Marshall Nirenburg along side with the rest if his group cracked the genetic code. -
Dolly the Sheep
By using genetics the first every clone was made. The clone was of a sheep called Dolly -
Hamilton Smith
First enzyme is purified -
Stanley Cohen and Herbert Boyer
Stanley Cohen and Herbert Boyer first constructed the recombinent DNA structure -
Fredrick Sanger
Fredrick Sanger was the first scientist to develop DNA sequencing technology -
Leland Hartwell
Discovered key reguation on the DNA cycle -
Kary Mullis
Kary Mullins invented PRC, which allowes scientists to produces endless amount of high purifiend DNA molecules. The development of this technology has become a revolution to DNA -
DNA
DNA fingerprinting in invented -
"Post-genomic era" officially begins
Craig Venter was the scientist who began the release of the human genome sequence -
DNA Today
Arguments about the cloning of animals and humans are still present as well as stem cell research and also the gentic modification of crop.
