1 All the Mids, two of the Longs, and one of the Shorts which successfully produced 

 seed, had a common Mid ancestor which seemed to be more capable of producing selfed 

 seed than the others. See also Table VIII where the descent is from the same Mid-styled 

 plant. The numbers in brackets after the parentage show the number of ? parents used. 



2 The pollen from another individual of the same type.
