| | Synopsis |
| | This internationally renowned simulation is designed to assist |
| | educators and students in exploring the principles of inheritance. |
| | It provides students with a virtual Mendelian laboratory in which |
| | learners perform a variety of plant breeding experiments using |
| | suggested experiments or design their own. The results of |
| | different crosses can be analysed and used for subsequent |
| | experiments in a fraction of the time required for real-world |
| | breeding programs. Experimental topics include self pollination |
| | and monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. Models of inheritance |
| | include simple dominant/recessive, codominant and partial |
