It limited itself mostly to a discussion of the molecular basis of inheritance through chromosomes.
Meanwhile, quietly working away in his monastery garden in Moravia, Gregor Mendel was following a different kind of abstract molecular theory of inheritance.
But Tony White took the job because in the dross he had spied a jewel: a growing business that sold specialized gear for the analysis of DNA, the molecular code of inheritance.

With the newfound molecular understanding of inheritance came an explosion of research.
Clinical issue Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is a rare congenital disorder that is characterized by premature aging and, at the molecular level, the inheritance of short telomeres.
The molecular basis of inheritance and information exchange, though, is a difficult topic for biology students (Pashley, 1985; Stewart et al., 1990; Allchin, 2000; Lewis et al., 2000; Wood-Robinson et al., 2000; Marbach-Ad, 2001), and many students have weak mental models of the relationships among genes, alleles, and chromosomes (Newman et al., 2012).
However, the molecular details of the inheritance of histone methylation are limited.
The molecular basis of the inheritance of alpaca fibre colour is poorly understood.
As mentioned earlier, two major influences led to the emphasis on replication as a necessary condition for evolution via natural selection: the influence of the replicator framework and the discovery of the molecular basis of genetic inheritance, in particular DNA replication.
