. Contributions from the Laboratory of Plant Genetics. The Inheritance of Quantitative Oha/racters in Maize 67. In 1910 the parent varieties and a small number of F± plants were again grown for comparison with the F2 generation. No. 509. the generation, is from the same crossed ear that pro- duced No. 170, No. 508 from the same ear as No. 151, and No. 363 from the same ear as No. 116. Again the Fx generation was intermediate between the parents in height of stalks with a comparatively small range of variation. The F2 generation, family 510, contained some plants quite as small as the smallest

Again the Fx generation was intermediate between the parents in height of stalks with a comparatively small range of variation. The F2 generation, family 510, contained some plants quite as small as the smallest of Tom Thumb pop and some as large as the average of the Missouri dent, with all gradations between. Since no selfed seed was obtained from the two original plants used in the cross it r-annot be known in hew far they were heterozygous for size.
