LOCK : STUDIES IN PLANT BREEDING 
that dominance of the inflated pod was found to be not quite com¬ 
plete. As regards the allelomorphic characters gray and white 
colour of the testa the same thing is true. Purple spots appeared in 
addition on the testas in the case of three out of four of the plants 
which had a coloured testa, and the further behaviour of these 
characters entirely bears out the explanation given on page 331. 
The presence of coloured flowers appears to be completely corre¬ 
lated with a coloured testa (greenish-gray) and with the presence of 
purple spots in the axils of the leaves. And with these characters 
the time of flowering is to some extent correlated. The evidence for 
this latter statement is given in the following table :—*
