Re: HYB: Second Reblooming Diploid Open

OK, that could be true about Taj Majal being a recessive white and would completely agree that Kupari is a galciata based on how pur a white it is.  However, I think there is more anthocyanin than should be present for Taj Majal to be recessive white and that is in comparison to TB recessive whites..  Hard to say what kind of comparison can be made between the diploids and tetraploids.

Of course Kupari is genetically a blue (glaciata genes remove the anthoycyanin completely) and crossed with any recessive white will give all blue offspring. Taj Mahal would be a genetically recessive white, which can have some haft markings as recessive white is not as effective in removing anthocyanin (blue pigmentation)
