Bicentennial of Gregor Johann Mendel's birth: Mendel's work still addresses geneticists in 2022
Original language description
Two hundred years ago, on 20 July 1822, Gregor Johann Mendel was born in thensmall Silesian town of Heinzendorf bei Odrau at that time a part of the Austrian Empire,nnow Hynèice in the Czech Republic. Members of the scientific world, as well as thengeneral public, are looking upon the bicentennial as a chance to gain new insights intonMendel’s work. Surprisingly, interest and acclaim for Mendel were not immediatelynforthcoming despite him making the authorities acquainted with his experimentalnfindings on plant hybridization in 1865–1866. It remains a closed book as to whynMendel’s carefully composed publication was unappreciated for more than 30 years.nThe only exception from the scientific community in the 1860s was Carl von Nägelinwho exchanged unproductive correspondence with Mendel regarding his work on plantnhybridization of the garden pea (Pisum sativum).n
