The journal was established in 1975 as Somatic Cell Genetics. The founding editor-in-chief was Richard L. Davidson (then of the University of Illinois College of Medicine).[1] The journal expanded scope to encompass the increased development of molecular genetics and changed its name to reflect this with the tenth volume January 1984 edition.[2] Davidson was succeeded[when?] as editor-in-chief by his colleague, Elliot R. Kaufman.[3] The journal was published by Springer group companies: Plenum Press until 1992, then by Kluwer until publication ceased in 2002. Publication frequency was mostly bimonthly.
