This is Part 2 of a 3-part series on genetics. In this episode we will dive into the principles of Mendelian Genetics. Breeding and creating a strain is governed by 3 important laws of nature, such as the environment, nutrition, and the traits they inherit. In other words, genetics. However, just the idea of genetics can be intimidating for many new breeders, and some veteran as well.
Many even avoid genetics, mostly because it can seem confusing and difficult to understand and use. It is my hope that we can show you, not only why genetic is important, but also how to use it in the improvement and creation of your strains. Once you understand the basics, many other topics concerning breeding will become clearer.
In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we will discuss Gregor Mendel’s three laws of inheritance:
- Law of Dominance – 1st law
- Law of Independent Assortment – 2nd law
- Law of Segregation. – 3rd law
There’s a lot of great nuggets of information that I know you will not want to miss.
