Don't know, not my department. I still don't understand why yellow and
green make blue, but blue and green don't make yellow. All I know is, if
you want a significant number of streaked or variegated seedlings, you
start with a streaked pod parent. You can theorize all you want that it
shouldn't be that way, but it still is.
