Cytologia is a peer-reviewed scientific journal of cell science and genetics , including cytology, cytogenetics , and cell biology , on a wide range of organism. It is published by The Japan Mendel Society. [1] The journal [2] was established in 1929 by Kenjiro Fujii (1866-1929; Tokyo Imperial University) as a founding editor-in-chief.
Cytologia has a long and illustrious history.
Cytologia [3] was the first international journal published in Japan, with the first edition appearing in 1929 by Kenjiro Fujii (1866–1952). He first established cytogenetics research at the Tokyo Imperial University (now The University of Tokyo) in Japan and devoted himself to the study of genetics.
Hitoshi Kihara (1893-1986), who was proposed the concept of "genome", was one of the most active contributors to Cytologia in early days of this journal. Since his article that graced the front page of the first issue (1929), he had contributed to Cytologia every year. In1930, he published a paper in German entitled “Genomanalyse bei Triticum und Aegilops”. [4] This paper is famous for proposing “genome analysis” as a cytogenetic method for revealing the genomic relationships among biological species.
George W. Beadle (1903–1989), who is a Nobel Prize laureate and a founder of Biochemical Genetics, also contributed to Cytologia. His paper entitled “A Gene in Zea mays for Failure of Cytokinesis during Meiosis” appeared in 1932 in Cytologia. [5] This paper is related to his doctor thesis and the first discovery that meiosis is genetically controlled.
