Resumen

A pesar de su importancia creciente los diagramas, esquemas y bocetos aún son un territorio relativamente poco explorado en la filosofía de la biología. Se presenta un diagrama, en formato grafo-modelo, que recupera la estructura conceptual de la genética mendeliana. Este diagrama se usa como herramienta de análisis epistemológico de otro diagrama que puede ser considerado paradigmático en la genética clásica: el cuadro de Punnett.
