27. The two-celled type of fruit is dominant to the

28. Style short, associated with large pollen grains, 

 constituting the " thrum" type, and style long, associated 

 with small pollen grains constituting the "pin-eyed" type. 

 Primula Sinensis and acaulis. Bateson and Gregory (17). 



The short styled type has been found in the homozygous condition in 

 P. Sinensis but not yet in P. acaulis. For the relations of these types to 

 the " homostyled " form, see p. 68. Dominance is complete.
