Finally published “Experiments on Plant Hybrids”! I’d appreciate it if you’d check it out. #MendelianGenetics

@GregorMendel677 Congratulations!

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

Honoured to have presented my findings to the Natural Science Society of Brno.

[Charles Darwin @Charles18332054]

@GregorMendel677 Your evidence is the missing piece in my theory of evolution. Before I couldn't understand how traits were preserved.

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

I’ve concluded that traits are inherited through the passing of discrete units individually of one another.

[JeanBaptiste Lamarck @Lamarck34849546]

@GregorMendel677 Aren't your findings proving what's already known? Hybrids eventually return to their original forms?

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

My findings-
P Generation: Yellow Pea * Green Pea
F1 Generation: Yellow Pea * Yellow Pea
F2 Generation: 3 Yellow : 1 Green

[JeanBaptiste Lamarck @Lamarck34849546]

@GregorMendel677 Check out my book, "Philosophie Zoologique". Inheritance of Acquired Traits is the answer! #InheritanceofAcquiredTraits

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

@Charles18332054 Pea traits are easily distinguishable, have short F1 and F2 span, and reproduction is easily manipulable making it ideal.

[Charles Darwin @Charles18332054]

@GregorMendel677 I've conducted a similar experiment with snapdragons however, hadn't reached any significant conclusions. Keep us updated!

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

I’ve begun to study inheritance through experimentation with peas. I hope to disprove blending inheritance.

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

Finally joined the Augustinian Order at St.Thomas Monastery. Can’t wait to explore their library and experimental labs!

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

@Lamarck34849546 I’d have to disagree. That challenges modern genetics.

[JeanBaptiste Lamarck @Lamarck34849546]

Use and Disuse explains why short necked giraffes constantly stretching their necks to reach leaves could have long necked offspring.

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

@Charles18332054 I think I’ve cracked the mystery. Check out my paper entitled “Experiments on Plant Hybridization”.

[Charles Darwin @Charles18332054]

Certain characteristics would fail to exist as it's irreversible. Anyone have suggestions?

[Gregor Mendel @GregorMendel677]

@Charles18332054 I’ve read your book and it’s phenomenal. I’ve sent you an article I've written regarding inheritance frequencies through generations.

[Charles Darwin @Charles18332054]

Check out my book, "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection"! #EvolutionbyNaturalSelection
