I doubt the pedigree of THORNBIRD supports the proposition that
it is SSSS, four-plex dominant SA.
I have one seedling
blooming from a LEMON CHESS X THORNBIRD cross. It expresses smooth
horns on each of the falls. I suspect LC has no space age irises in its
background.
So, if my suspicion that LC has no spaceagers in its
background is correct, how can SA horn expression be from more than a single
dominent gene?
And, if I successfully cross THORNBIRD back to (LEMON
CHESS x THORNBIRD) and a higher level of SA expression results in the progeny
than in the SA parent would this not strongly infer a dosage effect? Or for
that matter, were (LEMON CHESS x THORNBIRD) crossed back to any other SA iris
and the resultant progeny had higher level expression than either of the SA
parents would that not also strongly infer a dosage effect? Smiles, Bill
