'''Particulate inheritance''' is a pattern of inheritance discovered by [[Mendelian genetics]] theorists, such as [[William Bateson]], [[Ronald Fisher]] or [[Gregor Mendel]] himself, showing that [[phenotypic trait]]s can be passed from generation to generation through "discrete particles" known as [[genes]]., which can keep their ability to be expressed while not always appearing in a descending generation.<ref>[http://www.webref.org/anthropology/p/particulate_theory_of_inheritanc.htm "Particulate theory of inheritance"], WebRef</ref>
