3/3

As you know, Mendel did many

experiments in his garden. His

discoveries became the foundation

of genetics! So what exactly did he

do? Mendel decided to cross plants

with contrasting plants, purebred

of short and tall height. The First

filial generation was all tall plants;

however to his surprise the secondgeneration had around 25% short

plants and 75% tall plants. He

tested his experiments with other

alleles and the same result

occurred. Mendel reasoned that

genetic information must control

the inheritance of traits in peas,

and that this genetic information.

The male and female parents eachcontribute a factor, and finally

some factors hide others.

The Experiment The Abbey Gregor Mendel

The Abbey where Gregor Mendel

performed his experiments was an

Augustinian Monastery, lying in

the southwest area of Brno. It was

at this abbey where he was first a

monk, and then became its

Abbott.

The Abbey

The Grounds of the Abbey

Gregormendel, wasborn on July 22, 1822 in Heinzendorf bei

Odrau, Austrian Silesia, Austrian

Empire (nowHynice, Czech Republic). From

1840 to 1843, he studied practical and

theoretical philosophy as well as physics. In

1843 Mendel began his training as a priest.

Thanks to the recommendation of

his physics teacher Friedrich Franz, he entered

the Augustinian Abbey of St Thomas in

Brno in 1843. Other than his work on plant

breeding while at the Abbey, Mendel also

liked to breed bees in a bee house that was

built for him, using bee hives that he designed.

He also studied meteorology and astronomy.

Gregor Mendel died on January 6, 1884, at the

age of 61, in Brno, Moravia, Austria-

Hungary (now Czech Republic), from

chronic nephritis.
