Abstract
Neutrosophic Genetics is the study of genetics using neutrosophic logic, set, probability, statistics, measurement, and other neutrosophic tools and procedures. In this paper, based on the Neutrosophic Theory of Evolution (that includes degrees of Evolution, Neutrality (or Indeterminacy), and Involution) – as an extension of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, we show the applicability of neutrosophy in genetics, and we present within the frame of neutrosophic genetics the following concepts: neutrosophic mutation, neutrosophic speciation, and neutrosophic coevolution

Summary
The common definition is that a Mutation is a change (a permanent alteration) in the genetic (DNA) sequence. If a mistake is made in DNA copying, we have a mutation. The mutation can result from random mistake of DNA copying, or due to environmental factors (such as exposure to chemicals that are called mutagens, to ionizing radiation, or infection by viruses) [1]. If the mutation occurs in the body cells, it is called Somatic Mutation, and it is not passed on to the offspring. If the mutation occurs in the female eggs and male sperm, it is called Germ-Line Mutation, and it is passed on [1]. The mutation is part of Darwin’s Evolution and thanks to mutation we have much biodiversity of species on Earth
