Doris, they enclose a give cross and should always match in number. For each
one of these (you should be able to find a matching ). But, it is so easy to
miscount when typing.
<<((Arrangement X
(Beisan Aga X Kalifa Gulnare)>>
In this case we have a named iris crossed by a seedling. I think this should
be written=(Seedling #): Arrangement X (Beisan Aga x Kalifa Gulnare) This is
the way crosses are written in the R & I's and I believe it is the accepted
format.
I have seen it written like this . . . ((Arrangement X (Beisan Aga x Kalifa
Gulnare)), but never with unequal ( )'s. This would be appropriate if both
irises crossed were seedlings EX: ((Arrangement x WXYZ) X (Beisan Aga x
Kalifa Gulnare)). The inside ( and the outside ) represent the last cross.
If you have access to any of the R & I's (Registration & Introduction)
booklets or books you can read through them and get some idea. Maybe the one
online? Just remember that everything to the left of the big X is the pod
parent and everything to the right is the pollen parent. Some get quite
involved.
