The intercrossed plants thus have at least one important advantage over the self-fertilised.

These intercrossed plants thus became in the later generations more or less closely inter-related.

So that here again the self-fertilised exhibit a slight superiority over the intercrossed plants.

Indeed, in two of the cases the self-fertilised plants were superior to such intercrossed plants.

These consequently exceeded the intercrossed plants considerably in height.

The flowers of the intercrossed plants of the fourth generation were likewise nearly uniform in colour.

The forty-five capsules (the five empty ones included) from the intercrossed plants contained 2240 seeds.

The intercrossed plants in height to the self-fertilised as 100 to 77.

The intercrossed plants in weight to the self-fertilised as 100 to 22.3.

Mimulus luteus-theintercrossed plants are derived from a cross between two plants of the 8th self-fertilisedgeneration.

Moreover, in seven out of the eight pots a self-fertilised plant flowered before any of the intercrossed plants.

The ten tallest intercrossed plants produced 129 capsules, weighing 76.45 grains.

The English-crossed to the intercrossed plants, as 100 to 94.

By the English-crossed and intercrossed plants, as 100 to 81.

Westerham-crossed plants to intercrossed plants as 100 to 54.

The intercrossed plants of the same stock in four out of the five successive generations plainly exceeded in height the self-fertilised plants.
