CORRECTIONS:

9:56 - Weldon didn’t exactly try to replicate Mendel’s results - he didn’t do any crosses. His plates were moreso a proof of concept to show that the pea colour trait was more variable than Mendel was letting on. It certainly wasn’t a binary.

13:50 - It was Mendel's 200th birthday LAST year actually, but this video took so long to make that I never picked up that mistake in the script as the new year ticked over. Oh well, happy belated 200th birthday Mendel.
