distribution holds. 
Three of the neglectums were pure dominants. Nos. 4 to 11 
gave out of 449 plants, 121 recessives. Theoretically the number 
of these should be 112. The last five were probably pure 
But they stood amongst neglectums, to crossing 
with which the 8% of neglectwms are probably due.
