Comment[edit]

What is the purpose of this category? Epistasis was recently moved from Category:Genetics to here, and I'm not sure I entirely agree with it. Epistasis belongs wherever pleiotropy, canalisation, and plasticity go - all current research topics in genetics. Classical genetics sounds a bit like "old and established" genetics, even leaning towards obsolete. Is someone actually going through the entries in Category:Genetics and deciding where they should go? - Samsara 13:17, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
