Antirrhinuni Majus Striatum.

One of them, A, consists almost solely of finely striped 

 individuals and contains no red ones. The other, B, 

 consists almost entirely of broadly striped ones together 

 with 11-36% of uniformly red ones. But the separation 

 is not nearly so sharp as between the striped on the one 

 hand and the red on the other, inasmuch as the two 

 curves overlap. 



Fig. 23. AntirrJiinum majus hitciim rtthro-striatum. Curves 

 to illustrate the distribution of color amongst the off- 

 spring of self-fertilized individuals from the culture on 

 which Fig. 22 is based. Experiment in selection with 

 broadly and narrowly striped flowers. Curves represent- 

 ing the offspring: A, of the finely striped seed-parents 

 Bi_B4 ; B, of the broadly striped seed-parents Ai_A4.

We now come to the most important part of the ex- 

 periment, the question of the inheritance of the red 

 character. On account of this greater importance I had 

 already given it previously much attention. 



Here we are concerned not merely with the inheri- 

 tance of the red flowers in general, but with the study 

 of the special cases already distinguished. First we have 

 to consider the red seed variants, then the bud-variants 

 and lastly the single red flowers on striped racemes. 

 Finally it should be possible to test the red stamens of
