Mendel Museum of Masaryk University studies conducted on plants, peas in particular. However, one should not fail to mention Mendel’s other research in the field of meteorology, or breeding of bees. Abbot Mendel has stood for an immortal icon of modern biology owing to his own persistence, diligence, and analytical approach to the heredity of peas and other plants. Therefore, he is rightly called the father of genetics. The work of this genius was only fully appreciated after his death. Therefore, one of the aims of the museum is to demonstrate Mendel’s genius, and to raise awareness about the fields of study students, as well

The set of genes for one or more characters possessed by an individual is the genotype. A diploid individual often has two alleles for the determination of a character. Classical genetics is the part of genetics that is solely about the method in which genetic traits are transmitted via the acts of reproduction.
