Question

Hugo de vries identified what would later come to be called genes

Answer 1

Thanks for the question!

It is definitely a very interesting question to solve and do some brainstorming.

**************************************************
This was at 1889 where Hugo De Vries postulated and authored a book which was a modified version of Charles Darwin's theory of pangenesis, now called as, "Intracellular Pangenesis". On the book of Intracellular Pangenesis there was a term given to particulate elementary units presenting inheritance or inheritance derived by specific traits in particles by organisms called $\textbf{pangenes}$. This name was then again modified into, now known and coined by, genes or gene in 1909 by Danish Botanist and geneticist Wilhelm Johannsen. Johannsen defined the genes to be a first elementary unit of inheritance which clearly specifies the expression of a given particular trait.
Further which Thomas Hunt Morgan (American evolutionary biologist, embryologist and famously known geneticist) in 1911 called genes to be a smallest known segment of a chromosome which is determining a particular trait as well as at the same time it's crossing over of chromosomes and proving his much needed role in chromosomal play into heredity.
