Theodor Heinrich Boveri (1862-1915),German geneticist. Boveri's initial education was in history and philosophy,but he soon changed to science. His research extended the work of Edouard van Beneden on cell division. Boveri showed that a chromosome deficiency in an embryo led to abnormalities,and that each species has a specific selection of chromosomes. By 1910,it was clear that chromosomes carried the information of heredity. The chromosome theory of inheritance is known as the Boveri-Sutton chromosome theory,as the principle was independently discovered by Walter Sutton at around the same time (1902 to 1904) | |
