The important feature of this result is that the F, hybrids between strains A and B maintain essentially the same yielding capac- ity in successive years, while other hybrid strains produce quite dif- ferent yields, varying from bushels per acre to bushels per acre. This fact, therefore, speaks for the view that the yield is a result of the particular hybrid combination. The second fact which.
