Gregor Johann Mendel (20 July, 1822–6 January, 1884) was a scientist from Austria who achieved the title of being the founder of genetics science. Mendel propagated that there is a particular kind of pattern that is followed by the pea plants by which they get their inherent characteristics.
Later this theory came to be known as the laws of Mendelian inheritance. It was not before the 20th century that Mendel's work was given its due recognition. It was only after the 20th century that The Mendelian inheritance laws were rediscovered and worked upon thus forming the foundation of modern genetic science.
Mendel was greatly inspired by two of his professors at the University of Olomouc as well as his monastery colleagues, which drove him to further scrutinize the variation that is seen in plants. His experiments were conducted on the monastery grounds in an experimental garden. Mendel's theory finally took shape after he cultivated around 29,000 pea plants.
