The Journal of Genetics is among the oldest English language journals in genetics and has a unique history. It was founded in England by W. Bateson and R. C. Punnett in 1910, and later edited by J. B. S. Haldane. When Haldane and his wife, Helen Spurway, emigrated to India in 1957, they brought the journal with them. Haldane edited the journal from India until his death in 1964, after which Helen Spurway continued to publish the journal with Madhav Gadgil and H. Sharat Chandra (both of Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru) and Suresh Jayakar (Laboratorio de Genetica Biochimica ed Evoluzionistica, Pavia) as editors. Upon Helen Spurway’s death in 1977, the journal was not published for several years (the last issue published by her was Vol. 63 No. 2 of December 1977). In 1985, the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bengaluru, revived publication of the journal with the permission of Lady Naomi Mitchison, Haldane’s sister and heir to the Haldane estate. The first issue published by the Indian Academy of Sciences was Vol. 64. No. 1, July 1985. Since then, the journal continues to be published by the Indian Academy of Sciences. The journal covers all areas of genetics and evolution, including molecular genetics and molecular evolution. The journal retains its traditional interest in evolutionary research that is of relevance to geneticists, even if it is not explicitly genetical in nature. It publishes research papers and reviews articles on current topics, commentaries and essays on ideas and trends in genetics and evolutionary biology, historical developments, debates and book reviews. The journal also publishes ‘Resources’, which are brief reports on the development and use of molecular markers for assessing genetic variability, short notes on useful software or modifications to techniques, and descriptions of pedagogical aids and methods in genetics teaching.
