1. mendelian

   Mendelian inheritance (also known as Mendelism) is a type of biological inheritance following the principles originally proposed by Gregor Mendel in 1865 and 1866, re-discovered in 1900 by Hugo de Vries and Carl Correns, and later popularized by William Bateson. These principles were initially controversial. When Mendel's theories were integrated with the Boveri–Sutton chromosome theory of inheritance by Thomas Hunt Morgan in 1915, they became the core of classical genetics. Ronald Fisher combined these ideas with the theory of natural selection in his 1930 book The Genetical Theory of Natural Selection, putting evolution onto a mathematical footing and forming the basis for population genetics within the modern evolutionary synthesis.

1. mendelian

   Mendelian refers to traits, principles, or inheritance patterns which follow the laws proposed by Gregor Mendel, a 19th-century Austrian monk and scientist, who is often called the father of modern genetics. These laws, based on his experiments with pea plants, involve principles of segregation, independent assortment, and dominance. Mendelian traits or genes are typically influenced by a single gene and exhibit a simple dominant/recessive relationship.

Examples of mendelian in a Sentence

1. Dipender Gill:

   The statistical method used in this study, called Mendelian randomization, does not always allow causality to be inferred, for example, the genetic determinants of sleep may also affect other neuronal mechanisms that affect breast cancer risk independently of sleep patterns. In such a scenario, sleep patterns may be associated with risk of Breast Cancer, but not directly cause it.

2. Krishna Aragam:

   Newer and more advanced techniques in ‘non-linear Mendelian randomization’ now permit the use of human genetic data to evaluate the direction and magnitude of disease risk associated with different levels of an exposure.
