Reginald Crundall Punnett (* 20. Juni 1875 in Tonbridge, Grafschaft Kent; † 3. Januar 1967 in Bilbrook, Grafschaft Somerset) war ein britischer Genetiker . Leben und Wirken. 1898 schloss er sein Studium in Zoologie an dem Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, erfolgreich ab, obwohl er dort ursprünglich Medizin studieren wollte.
Reginald Punnett and William Bateson were among the first English geneticists. Punnett devised the "Punnett Square" to depict the number and variety of genetic combinations, and had a role in shaping the Hardy-Weinberg law. Punnett and Bateson co-discovered "coupling" or gene linkage.
In 1912, when William Bateson decided not to return to Cambridge, Punnett became the first Arthur Balfour Professor of Genetics at the university. He worked on the genetics of sweet pea, maize and poultry, developing many breeds. He even used linkage as a way to sex type baby chicks.
