Step into Genetics

Genetics lies at the very heart of all biological sciences governing the blueprint of life and shaping the diversity that defines every living organism. From Mendel’s pea experiments to the discovery of DNA and the dawn of genomics genetics has evolved into one of the most dynamic and impactful fields of modern science. This book “Step into Genetics” is conceived as a comprehensive guide to help readers embark on a journey through the fascinating world of heredity variation and molecular mechanisms that define life itself.The purpose of this book is to present the fundamental principles of genetics in a structured accessible and engaging manner. It begins with the historical development of genetic thought gradually unfolding key concepts such as Mendelian inheritance chromosomal theory gene interactions and molecular genetics. As the chapters progress the reader is introduced to advanced topics including population genetics quantitative genetics genomics and contemporary genetic engineering approaches that are revolutionizing agriculture medicine and biotechnology.
