Four tests with Morning Glories (both Coyivolvulus major and C. mifior) gave results uniformly in favor of wliite seeds as con- trasted with black ones in the same sample. From a considerable study of the importance of color in relation to germination, we have drawn the following CONCLUSIONS. 1. Seeds which differ widely in color in any sample frequently give different results under test. 2. This variation in results may lie in greater rapidity of sprout- ing, or in higher total amounts, or in both. 3. The relative values of seeds of different colors vary with each .species, or sometimes with each 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 Cornell University.
