Are Mendel's Data Reliable? The Perspective of a Pea Geneticist.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2016

Weeden Norman F

Abstract excerpt

Mendel's data exhibit remarkable agreement to the ratios he predicted. In this article, alternative explanations for this close agreement (that inheritance in pea does not conform to the standard statistical model, that data were omitted, that ambiguous data were categorized to better match predicted ratios, and that some data were deliberately falsified) are tested using approaches that are designed to...
