Abstract
IN NATURE of March 19 Mr. Bateson refused to discuss the eye-colour of Mr. Darbishire's mice as a simple character, separable from coat-colour. Re then treated Mr. Darbishire's results as dependent on gametes of two kjnds; one, G, bearing the characters “white coat and pink eye,” the other, G′, bearing “colour in the coat and pink eye.” The hybrids resulting from the cross were said to be of constitution GG′, and their offspring were represented, in constitution and in relative frequency, by GG+2GG′ + G′G′.
