About this person

Lucien Louis Daniel was a French botanist and horticulturist who spent most of his career at the Faculty of Sciences of Rennes studying grafting. He is best remembered for his contested claim that grafting could produce lasting, heritable change in plants, a position he reached in the same years as the Russian breeder Ivan Michurin and that links his name to the long debate over so-called graft hybrids. He has sometimes been described as a founder of scientific horticulture.
