چکیده

There used to be a broad split within the experimental genetics research community between those who did mechanistic research using homozygous laboratory strains and those who studied patterns of genetic variation in wild populations. The former benefited from the advantage of reproducible experiments, but faced difficulties of interpretation given possible genomic and evolutionary complexities. The latter research approach featured readily interpreted evolutionary and genomic contexts, particularly phylogeny, but was poor at determining functional significance. Such burgeoning experimental strategies as genomewide analysis of quantitative trait loci, genotype–phenotype associations, and the products of experimental evolution are now fostering a unification of experimental genetic research that strengthens its scientific

Anecdotal , Historical and Critical Commentaries on Genetics Edited by James F . Crow and William F . Dove Development : Mendel ’ s Legacy to Genetics

From the Editors: This year marks the hundredth year of genetics as a science, while the next two years mark the turning of the millennium. The year 1900 saw the rediscovery of Mendel’s laws by DeVries, Correns, and Tschermak, and the revolution that was set forth by this triple confirmation has had few equals in science. Our way of celebrating this anniversary has been to invite another look a...

Weaving a Tapestry from Threads Spun by Geneticists: The Series Perspectives on Genetics, 1987-2008.

The Perspectives column was initiated in 1987 when Jan Drake, Editor-in-Chief of GENETICS, invited Jim Crow and William Dove to serve as coeditors of "Anecdotal, Historical, and Critical Commentaries." As the series evolved over 21 years, under the guidance of Crow and Dove, the input of stories told by geneticists from many countries created a panorama of 20th-century genetics. Three recurrent...
