Reading the FormulaFORMULA DECODED
The parentage in the data table — (‘Jaws’ × ‘Southbay’) × (‘Heaven and Hell’ × ‘Bone’) — first makes two crosses, then crosses their seedlings with each other. In the posts, we write the second cross in abbreviated form, (‘HH’ × ‘Bone’).
-
STEP 1 — FIRST CROSS
‘Jaws’ × ‘Southbay’
→ seedling grex A.
-
STEP 2 — SECOND CROSS
‘Heaven and Hell’ × ‘Bone’
→ seedling grex B. ‘HH’ is the abbreviation for ‘Heaven and Hell’.
-
STEP 3 — SEEDLING × SEEDLING
grex A seedling × grex B seedling
→ the plant on this page (record tag #tgn_dyc_jshb).
