COLORED X WHITE. 
As the result of poilinating plants grown from the heterozygous 
colored seeds with pollen from plants grown from the white seeds of 
ears Nos. 1099 and 1111, 31 ears were obtained. These ears are 
shown in Table XIX. The 31 ears had 12,193 seeds with 49.8 per 
cent white, the deviation being 0.7 times the probable error. Four- 
teen ears exceeded the expected, sixteen were below the expected, and 
one was exactely 50 per cent white. The fit was therefore extremely 
good.
