Thomas Hunt Morgan and his students study fruit fly chromosomes.
By painstakingly examining thousands upon thousands of flies with
a microscope and a magnifying
glass, Morgan and his colleagues
confirmed the chromosomal
theory of inheritance: that genes
are located on chromosomes like
beads on a string, and that some
genes are linked (meaning they
are on the same chromosome and
always inherited together). One of
his students, Alfred Sturtevant, created the first ever genetic map, a
landmark event in genetics.

The first production of recombinant DNA molecules, using restriction enzymes, occurred in the early
1970s. Recombinant DNA technology involves the joining of DNA
from different species and subsequently inserting the hybrid DNA
into a host cell, often a bacterium.
