Abstract excerpt
Mendel1 studied in detail seven pairs of contrasting traits in pea (Pisum sativum), establishing the foundational principles of genetic inheritance. Here we investigate the genetic architecture that underlies these traits and uncover previously undescribed alleles for the four characterized Mendelian genes2-7, including a rare revertant of Mendel's white-flowered a allele. Primarily, we focus on the three...
