In the second hybrid generation or F2, derived by self-fertilization of the F\, about one fourth of the plants are purple, with all their gametes carrying the factor for purple; one half light purple, with about half their gametes carrying purple and half white; and one fourth white, all their gametes carrying white. The purple-flowered plants breed true to purple in the F3, the white-flowered ones to white, and the light purple ones behave as did the light purple Fi, producing about one fourth purple, one half light purple, and one fourth Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Sinnott, Edmund Ware, 1888-.
