Wow! Impressive. Discounting Kochii, Black Prince, Amas, Ricardi, cyprania,
mesopotomica, trojana, etc., etc., I have only turned up one instance out
of 6000+ TB and 'short TB' pedigrees where I. germanica (44) was fairly
unarguably used in a cross that comes all the way down to modern talls. And
the link to modern progeny is sullied by a question mark on a lineal
descendent.
Tell me more!!!
