Title: Fig. 395. Diagram illustrating the transmission of 2 pairs of genes, borne on different pairs of chromosomes. Each original parent contributed, through its gamete, 1 chromosome of each pair. Chromosomes of 1 pair bear respectively genes for tallness (T) and for shortness (s); those of the other pair, genes for purple (P) and for white (w). The F1 sporophyte produces 4 types of macrospores and 4 types of microspores. These spores give rise to macrogametophytes of 4 types, producing each its own type of male gamete.

Title: Fig. 394. Diagram illustrating the transmission of genes for tallness and shortness, borne on chromosomes of 1 pair. Each original parent contributed, through its gamete, 1 chromosome of the pair. The 2 chromosomes are separated in the reduction divisions, half the macrospores and half the microspores receiving the chromosome bearing a gene for tallness, the other half of the macrospores and microspores receiving the chromosome bearing a gene for shortness. These spores give rise to gametophytes, and these to gametes, containing corresponding chromosomes; hence there are 2 kinds of eggs and 2 kinds of male gametes. The result of hap-hazard unions between eggs and male gametes is the production of zygotes, and hence of sporophytes, of which ¼ have 2 genes each for tallness, ½ have each 1 gene for tallness and 1 gene for shortness, ¼ have each 2 genes for shortness. Sporophytes of the first 2 classes are tall, tallness being dominant; those of the third class are short.
