- The document discusses concepts in heredity that were discovered after Mendel's foundational work, referred to as "post-Mendelian concepts" or "Mendelian deviations". - These concepts include incomplete dominance, co-dominance, multiple alleles, linkage, lethal genes, gene interactions, pleiotropic effects, polygenes, environmental effects, and cytoplasmic inheritance. They provided further clarification and exceptions to Mendel's original laws of heredity.
