Teoria da pangenese (cada parte do corpo produz algo que é
colhido no semen e que é a essência da hereditariedade
Aristóteles (384-322 bc)
Critica a teoria da pangenese:
Hereditariedade de caracteres de antecedentes que não
os pais
Hereditariedade de peculiaridades de unhas,cabelos e
hábitos
Hereditariedade de características tardias (tipo de
barba, cabelo grisalho, etc)
Ausência de efeito hereditário das mutilações

History Society. The results are published the
following year.
1866
Mendel
Gregor Mendel publishes his findings on heredity in
peas, in Versuche über Pflanzen Hybriden.
Summary of Mendel's Results:
•The F1 offspring showed only one of the two parental traits, and always the same trait.
•Results were always the same regardless of which parent donated the pollen (was male).
•The trait not shown in the F1 reappeared in the F2 in about 25% of the offspring.
•Traits remained unchanged when passed to offspring: they did not blend in any offspring but
behaved as separate units.
•Reciprocal crosses showed each parent made an equal contribution to the offspring.
Mendel's Conclusions:
•Evidence indicated factors could be hidden or unexpressed, these are the recessive traits.
•The term phenotype refers to the outward appearance of a trait, while the term genotype is used
for the genetic makeup of an organism.
•Male and female contributed equally to the offsprings' genetic makeup: therefore the number of
traits was probably two (the simplest solution).
•Upper case letters are traditionally used to denote dominant traits, lower case letters for
recessives.
Timeline
1866-1900 (I)
1868
Darwin
Darwin publishes Variation in Animals and
Plants., relatando experiências de várias fontes.
Descreve 2 tipos de cruzamentos: continuos e
descontínuos (dominantes e recessivos) deduzindo
que o cruzamento leva á homogeneização e o
“inbred” á diferenciação. A sua teoria da
hereditariedade foi pouco aceite mas preparou o
caminho para Weissman e de Vries que em 1900
redescobre Mendel.
1869
F. Galton
publishes Hereditary Genius. In it he describes a
scientific study of human pedigrees from which he
concludes that intelligence has a genetic basis.
1871
Johann Friedrich
Miescher
Isolated a substance which he calls NUCLEIN from
the nuclei of white blood cells that was soluble in
alkalis but not in acids. This substance came to be
known as nucleic acid.
Charles Darwin's
Publication of Descent of Man, in which the role of
sexual selection in evolution is described for the first
time.
Anton Schneider
observed and described the behavior of nuclear
filaments (chromosomes) during cell division in
his study of the platyhelminth Mesostoma. His
account was the first accurate description of the
process of mitosis in animal cells.
1873
1866-1900 (I)
F. Galton
demonstrates the usefulness of twin studies for
elucidating the relative influence of nature (heredity) and
nurture (environment) upon behavioral traits.
Oscar Hertwig
Concludes from a study of the reproduction of the sea
urchin that fertilization in both animals and plants
consists of the physical union of the two nuclei
contributed by the male and female parents.
E.Strasburger
accurately described the processes of mitotic cell
division in plants.
1879-82
W. Flemming
describes and names CHROMATIN, MITOSIS, and the
SPIREME. He makes the first accurate counts of
chromosome numbers and accurately drew the
"longitudinal splitting" of chromosomes.
1883
E. Beneden
announced the principles of genetic continuity of
chromosomes and reported the occurrence of
chromosome reduction at germ cell formation. The sperm
and egg are haploid and fertilization restores the diploid
chromosome number.
A. Weismann
points out the distinction in animals between the
somatic cell line and the germ cells, stressing that
only changes in germ cells are transmitted to further
generations.

the basis for inheritance was independently
reported by
1885
Walther Flemming
observed sister chromatids passing to opposite
poles of the cell during mitosis.
1889
Francis Galton
publishes Natural Inheritance. In it he describes the
quantitative measurement of metric traits in
populations. He thus founds biometry and the
statistical study of variation. Ultimately, he formulates
the Law of Ancestral Inheritance, a statistical
description of the relative contributions to heredity
made by one's ancestors.
1896
E. B. Wilson
publishes The Cell in Development and Heredity.
This influential treatise (ultimately reprinted in several
editions) distills the information compliled concerning
cytology in the half-century since Schleiden and
Schwann put forth the cell theory.

London.
1899
Timeline
Richard Altmann
renamed "nuclein" NUCLEIC ACID.
William Bateson
writes a paper on hybridisation and cross-breeding as
a method of scientific investigation that anticipates
Mendel's rediscovery.
A Redescoberta
1900
H. de Vries,
C. Correns,
E. Tschermak
independently rediscover Mendel's paper.
Using several plant species, de Vries and Correns had
performed breeding experiments that paralleled
Mendel's earlier studies and had independently arrived
at similar interpretations of their results.

studies by his analytical work. He demonstrates for
DNA that the numbers of adenine and thymine groups

Watson and Crick that DNA consists of two
polynucleotide strands joined by hydrogen bonding
between A and T and between G and C.
