Sergei Chetverikov
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Sergei Sergeevich Chetverikov ( 1880-1959) was a Russian population geneticist.
In 1926 Chetverikov produced what would have been one of the landmark papers of the modern evolutionary synthesis. However, being in Russian it was ignored in the English-speaking world, shortly before Soviet science was scuppered by Lysenkoism and only came to light after his death, by which time others (J.B.S. Haldane, R.A. Fisher Sewall Wright) had worked out the details.
