Description
Summary:Value of N.I. Vavilov's low of homological lines in hereditary variability for genetics, breeding and of some problems of evolution in view of modern data of molecular biology and genetics is briefly analyzed. In spite of the fact that this law has been published in 1920 when nothing was known about genome structure of organisms, N.I. Vavilov expected the solution of some the genetic problems, connected with the classification of types of the variability offered by him, giving possible a prediction of detec tion of unknown types of mutations for a certain species.
