Mendel subjects crossword clue
58 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 3, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Mendel subjects” is PEAS. It appears as 58 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 3, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Shades of Difference” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 14, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with P and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
