a height of between one and two feet they were all, or almost all, shorter than their self-fertilised opponents, but were not then measured. When they had acquired an average height of 32.28 inches, that of the self-fertilised plants was 40.68, or as 100 to 122.

Ipomoea

nothing can be said on their relative fertility.

Crossed and self-fertilised plants of the eighth generation.— (Ipomoea purpurea) Asjust stated the plants of the last generation, from which the present ones were raised, were very unhealthy, and their seeds of unusually small size; and this probably accounts for the two lots behaving differently from what they did in any of the previous or succeeding generations, heretofore.

Many of the self-fertilised seeds germinated before the crossed ones, and these were of course rejected
