REACTION-INTENSITIES OF EACH HYBRID STARCH IN 



RELATION TO SAMENESS AND INCLINATION TO 



EACH PARENT AND BOTH PARENTS. 



(Table G.) 



The data included in Table F, Parts 1 to 50, can be 

 given a setting that will show quite clearly, although 

 somewhat grossly, the comparative degrees of influence 

 that have been exerted by each of the parents on the 

 properties of the starch of the hybrid. Such a presenta- 

 tion will be found in Table G. From the figures here 

 formulated it will be seen that the various hybrids ex- 



hibit the widest differences in their parental bearings, 

 there being all gradations between one extreme where 

 with the exception of 3 reactions of 26 there is same- 

 ness or inclination to the seed parent (as in Htrmanthus 

 l-onig albert and Begonia mrs. heal) and the other ex- 

 treme where with the exception of 1 or 2 reactions of 

 26 the corresponding relationship is borne to the pollen 

 parent (as in Crinum hybridum j. c. h., C. powellii, 

 Gladiolus colvillei, and Musa Jujbrida). In most of the 

 hybrids there is a quite definite leaning to one or the 

 other parent. In summing up the total number of reac- 

 tions in each column it is found that of 1,018 reactions
