[SpaceAgeRobin] RE: Space Age Genetics

I've worked out some ratios based on Sa-3/4 dosages need for expression.

Sa-3 X Sa-1 produces 1/4 Appendage
Sa-3 X Sa-2  produces 1/2 appendages
Sa-4 X Sa-1 produces 1/2 Appendage
Sa-4 X Sa-2 produces 5/6 Appendage.

I haven't heard of any SA X non SA producing seedlings up to 5/6 appendage. So this many dosages may not be needed.

This leaves the possibility of Shelf and BSE as being Sa-1 and  SA horn  being Sa-2. This would leave room for Sa-3 being spoons ans Sa-4 being flounces. 

I'll work out ratios for some of those posibilites. 

I have Wild Wings here but it isn't a strong bloomer for me. Lots of Dynamite and it blooms like dynamite for me so I can use it. I would accept and make use of any pollen contributions.

>Chuck's suggestion the primary factor in SA inheritance is a weak dominant is probably accurate, judging by the small amount of information from Austin's comments and others.  SA's crossed onto most varieties gives at least some SA offspring.  The non-producers are a minority, in fact, a very small minority.  That suggests a dominant, but a weak one, as rations are never 1 out of 2, the ratio expected from a strong dominant in a single dose on one of the parents, and 3 out of 4 for the dominant present in both parents as one dose, or in either parent in 2 doses.
