Re: Re: Re: Anthocyanin-sidetracked

Paul,
Ok... I'm looking at your posts again... you're saying that there is a
"blue" expression that is coming from suaveolens, which is connected to
ameona, not to plicata.  If I'm following... is your primary point that not
all pale blues are because of I?
How would you rule out the presence of
suaveolens influence?
Christian

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.
