Thomas Hunt Morgan ( 25 septembre 1866 à Lexington, Kentucky, États-Unis - 4 décembre 1945 à Pasadena, Californie 1) était un embryologiste et généticien américain 2. Il étudia la zoologie et les variations phénotypiques chez la mouche du vinaigre Drosophila melanogaster.
Thomas Hunt Morgan (September 25, 1866 – December 4, 1945) was an American evolutionary biologist, geneticist, embryologist, and science author who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1933 for discoveries elucidating the role that the chromosome plays in heredity.
19 janv. 1999 · Biographie du généticien américain qui a établi la théorie chromosomique de l'hérédité à partir de la mouche du vinaigre. Prix Nobel de médecine en 1933, il a influencé de nombreux chercheurs dans le domaine de la biologie.
Biologiste américain (Lexington, Kentucky, 1866-Pasadena, Californie, 1945). À partir d'expériences sur la drosophile, il a édifié la théorie chromosomique de l'hérédité. Il a permis ainsi d'expliquer les lois de Mendel et inauguré la génétique moderne.
Thomas Hunt Morgan (born Sept. 25, 1866, Lexington, Ky., U.S.—died Dec. 4, 1945, Pasadena, Calif.) was an American zoologist and geneticist, famous for his experimental research with the fruit fly (Drosophila) by which he established the chromosome theory of heredity.

By conducting statistical studies of the way genetic traits are passed on in fruit flies, Thomas Hunt Morgan broke new ground in genetics during the first decade of the 20th century. His work confirmed that genes are stored in chromosomes inside cell nuclei.
Learn how Morgan discovered the link between white-eye trait and X chromosome in fruit flies, and how he confirmed the chromosome theory of inheritance. Explore his experiments, results, and conclusions with examples and diagrams.
