  • Title: Reexamination of the fate of Mendel's paper.
    Author: Monaghan FV, Corcos AF.
    Journal: J Hered; 1987; 78(2):116-8. PubMed ID: 3295022.
    Abstract:
    The usual account is that when Mendel gave his paper, no one understood what he said and there were no questions and no discussion. Examination of available evidence indicates that this is not true. Also, it is usually said that Mendel's paper was lost or ignored from 1866 to 1900. This is not true either. However, with the possible exception of one person, none of those citing the paper showed any interest in or understanding of Mendel's explanations of his results.
