Excerpt from Inheritance in MaizeThe investigations reported in this paper were begun in the Spring of the year 1905. During the first four years the work was conducted at the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station. Since the fall of 1909, it has been carried on both there and at the Bussey Institution of Harvard University. Strictly speaking the researches comprise more than five years' work, for several of the pure varieties used as parent stocks had been selfed for the two previous years, so that a number of crosses were made in 1905 with full assurance that as far as most of the visible characters were concerned, the parent strains were pure. There was some further advantage gained in that the' writers have been interested in experimental maize breeding since 1900, for without this experience the probable error of the results would be greatly increased.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
