The results may be given in another form (Table 1.7) by comparing, first, the
number of capsules, whether good or bad, or of the good alone, produced by 100
flowers of both forms when legitimately and illegitimately fertilised; secondly,
by comparing the weight of seed in 100 of these capsules, whether good or bad;
or, thirdly, in 100 of the good capsules.

TABLE 1.7. Primula veris.

Column 1: Nature of the Union.
Column 2: Number of Flowers fertilised.
Column 3: Number of Capsules.
Column 4: Number of good Capsules.
Column 5: Weight of Seed in grains.
...
Column 6: Number of Capsules.
Column 7: Weight of Seed in grains.
...
Column 8: Number of good Capsules.
Column 9: Weight of Seed in grains.

The two legitimate unions :
100 : 77 : 71 : 39 :: 100 : 50 :: 100 : 54.

The two illegitimate unions :
100 : 45 : 31 : 11 :: 100 : 24 :: 100 : 35.

We here see that the long-styled flowers fertilised with pollen from the short-
styled yield more capsules, especially good ones (i.e. containing more than one
or two seeds), and that these capsules contain a greater proportional weight of
