The 13 pages that link to Chromosome theory of inheritance, each with the reason it gives.

• Mendelian inheritanceRelated: It connected Mendel’s abstract factors to physical structures in cells.

• GeneRelated: It connected abstract hereditary units with physical structures containing genes.

• Gregor MendelRelated: Later work on chromosomes supplied a physical basis for Mendel’s abstract hereditary factors.

• Thomas Hunt MorganNarrower topic: Morgan’s experiments supplied decisive evidence for this account of heredity.

• GeneticsRelated: It connected Mendel's abstract hereditary factors to structures inside cells.

• Theodor BoveriRelated: Boveri’s evidence helped establish chromosomes as carriers of distinct hereditary factors.

• LysenkoismCompared with: This experimentally supported theory conflicted with Lysenkoism’s denial of genes.

• Independent assortmentRelated: It connected Mendel's assortment principle to the segregation of chromosomes during meiosis.

• Boveri–Sutton chromosome theoryNarrower topic: This broader framework grew from the theory’s identification of chromosomes as hereditary carriers.

• History of geneticsRelated: It connected Mendel’s abstract hereditary factors to structures inside cells.

• Hermann Joseph MullerNarrower topic: This framework made Muller’s inherited mutation results interpretable.

• Nettie StevensNarrower topic: Her findings supplied evidence that chromosomes transmit traits linked to sex.

• Sex linkageNarrower topic: Sex linkage became a powerful test of the theory's claim that genes reside on chromosomes.
