Sweet Pea Notebooks

<p style='text-align: justify;'> Notebook recording Bateson and Punnett's experiments with sweet peas, marked ‘1906 (1st crosses)’. The general format of the record is that the parents are recorded as numbers with a superscript or sometimes as a named variety. Since sweet peas can be selfed, some crosses have only a single parent. The date of sowing and the date of planting out are recorded, together with other observations on the plants such as colour. A labelling error is recorded in page <a href='' onclick='store.loadPage(29);return false;'>25r</a>. The plant on page <a href='' onclick='store.loadPage(67);return false;'>53</a> is marked ‘Tallest plant in garden, about 6 ft +’. </p>
