-In moderngeneticsthe term Mendelian Heredityhas been enlarged to include all that
behavior of inheritedtraits which is dependentupon the normal distributionand action of
chromosomesand theirgenes. Originallyonly the 3:1 monohybridand 9:3:3:1 dihybridratios
were thoughtto be Mendelian. From this there has been a general spread of the concept of
Mendelism. Modifieddihybridratios, and multihybridratios come into line because the same
distributionmechanismis involved. The chromosometheory becomes part of Mendelism.
Hence, Morganismfalls naturallyinto this concept. Multiple factor inheritanceis likewise
Mendelian. Even thoughthe expressionof a characteris a blend, the genes are not. Non-Men-
delian Heredityincludesasexual reproduction
and cytoplasmicinheritance.
