When the results in both trees are considered together, we see that 
out. of 45 hi.aiiches on whose shoots of the year I experimented those 
of 9 hmndies produced female or hermaphrodite flow が s in the positions 
pi’oper to male flowers ; that out of 21 b む inches with marks of previous 
injm’ies the shoots of 5 brandies produced : fem 孔 le or hermaphorodite 
flowers ill the positions proper to male flowers ; and tliat out of 2283 
b パ 111 ches which wei'e neither pollarded nor had any marks of previous 
injuries the shoots of only 7 branches produced female or hermaphrodite 
flowers in the positions proper to raale flowers. And the ratio is 
very small when compared with either — or を 王， 
From this, we の ay conclude that the : foraiation of such abnormal 
■flowers in these 9 branches (A and A' of the tables) and 5 branch が 
(B and が of the tables) is mainly due to け le c が が of the pollarding 
and the previous injuries.
