The freduehcy of recessive hompzygoteS in successive generations of hybrids was investigated for such genes as C : c for, apiculus pigmentatiori, + : gl for glu-tinous endosperm. Rc :, rc for seed coat coloration, and Ph : ph for phenol reaction. Ih. hybrids between . varieties of the "Continental group" and the "Insular Group", genes of the formet generally tended to increase against thpse of the latter.
