Abstract

Genetics is the science of genes, genetic variation and heredity in the  organism. Genetics is thought to be a new branch of science evolved  during 19th century. Gregor Mendel was the first who developed  principle of inheritance and had described the transmission of genetic  traits from generation to generation. Although some concepts of genetics  have been described in Ayurveda which is Upaveda of Atharvaveda and  thousands of years old texts. Ayurveda has been cited the concepts of  Beeja, Beejbhag, Beejbhagavyava which influence the prakriti of  individual and vitiation of these units cause deformity in the progeny.  Acharya Charaka, Sushrut and Vagbhata all have described many  genetic deformities in Sharir sthan.
