A biography of J. Herbert Taylor, an influential early contributor to modern genetic science. James Herbert Taylor was a pioneer in molecular genetics. His career spanned more than 50 years, during a time of phenomenal change in the field of genetics. His groundbreaking contributions to the knowledge of chromsome structure and reproduction produced many methods now standard in genetics. Taylor's early work in the mid-1950's helped to prove that DNA was the genetic material of the chromosome, by demonstrating that a radioactive label incorporated into DNA could be visualized in the autoradiograms of chromosomes.
