Re: Re: Re: Anthocyanin-sidetracked

I was mentioning that point as the plicata influence from I. suaveolens might confuse what is being seen in the crosses especially if you didn't know it was there.  No one else had mentioned or replied with observations of plicatas from suaveolens when I last posted long ago.  It seems it might be of importance now.

>>And to further muddle things up for you, I've got what should be glaciata seedlings in a second generation from KUPARI (a glaciata white Iris pallida) crossed with Iris suaveolens. I say "should be" because suaveolens has contributed some pale anthocyanin pigmentation that is showing up only in the falls. When I had first discussed this with Neil, years ago, when we were only seeing the first generation, we talked of it as a "dominant amoena" gene - like I(s), but now that I've been working with it for a little longer. I'm starting to think of it differently. I'll see if I can find a picture and repost it to Iris-Photos. So you can see what I mean.
