Through a collaborative effort between the Special Collections Research Center
and the NCSU Libraries Collection Management Department, the Libraries has
built a collection containing many of the groundbreaking works in plant genetics
and plant genomics history.
In addition to landmark works, the Research Center has identified significant
primary source documents, including the papers of several NCSU faculty members.
Thus far, we have acquired the papers of C. Clark Cockerham and have begun
the process of transferring the papers of Charles Stuber, a world renowned
expert in the identification of corn genes.
Plant genetics has been described as having a “classical period” that
includes the research conducted by Gregor Mendel’s predecessors, Mendel
himself, and others through the 1940s. The second period, that of chromosomal
and molecular genetics, includes discoveries made after 1940. Highlights of
the collection assembled by the Research Center documenting the rise of this
important discipline include publications by Darwin, Mendel, Beadle, McClintock,
and other notable scientists.
