In his 1932 book on The Mechanism of Creative Evolution, Hurst adopted the chromosome theory of inheritance whole-heartedly referring copiously to Thomas Hunt Morgan's Drosophila work, and he was also clearly a staunch Darwinist.

Haldane, which proved that quantitative traits and natural selection were compatible with Mendelism.
