Friedrich Miescher, the Swiss scientist who discovered DNA in 1869, already understood a surprising amount about its function. Sadly, as Ralf Dahm explains, he fell short of grasping the role of DNA in heredity because he was held back by established theories of the time.
瑞士科学家弗里德里希·米歇尔于 1869 年发现了 DNA,他对 DNA 的功能已经有了惊人的了解。遗憾的是,正如拉尔夫·达姆所解释的那样,由于当时的既定理论的限制,他未能理解 DNA 在遗传中的作用。
