Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Gene is the basic unit of the hereditary, which is formed up of DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid). The size of agene varies from a hundred to million bases. Genes are the instruction set that determines the physical characters and genesis of an organism. The word gene was first discovered by Wilhelm Johannsen.
