Mendelian Genetics & Probability: Unlocking Trait Inheritance Patterns in Wild Plant Populations Understanding how traits pass from one generation to the next is one of biology’s foundational pillars — a field where genetics and probability converge. Mendelian genetics, rooted in the pioneering work of Gregor Mendel, provides the framework to decode inheritance patterns, while probability models allow scientists to predict and analyze trait distribution in wild plant populations. This article explores how Mendelian principles, coupled with statistical reasoning, unlock insights into natural variation and evolutionary dynamics among wild plants. --- ### The Legacy of Mendel in Plant Genetics
