Contents 1. The origins of mouse genetics and the discovery of the T-locus; 2. The evolutionary modern synthesis, t-haplotypes in the wild, and reproductive isolation; 3. Linkage studies, cytogenetics, and the discovery that t-haplotypes consist of a series of inversions--an over-the-Century Project; 4. Developmental genetics and recessive t-lethals; 5. More population genetics with particular attention to the effects of t-allele mediated transmission ratio distortion; 6. Mutation studies including those targeting the T/t-complex--a century long project; 7. Immunogenetics and the failed search for t-antigens-from mid-century and continuing to it's end; 8. Gametogenesis and the genetics of gametes, including t-haplotype segregation distortion; 9. The cloning era and the cloning of Brachury and other T/t complex genes; 10. X-inactivation, epigenetics, and imprinting, including of the T/t complex; 11. Sex determination, sex differentiation, and the Y chromosome--a mostly last quarter of the century effort; 12.
