Abhandlungen,1865, 47 стр. EXPERIENCE OF ARTIFICIAL FERTILIZATION, such as is effected with
ornamental plants in order to obtain new variations in color, has led to
the experiments which will here be discussed. The striking regularity
with which the same hybrid forms always reappeared whenever
fertilization took place between the same species induced further
experiments to be undertaken, the object of which was to follow up
the developments of the hybrids in their progeny.The paper now presented records the results of such a detailed
experiment. This experiment was practically confined to a small plant
group, and is now, after eight years’ pursuit, concluded in all
essentials. Whether the plan upon which the separate experiments
were conducted and carried out was the best suited to attain the
desired end is left to the friendly decision of the reader.
