Natural crossing and segregation in sericea lespedeza, Lespedeza cuneata (Dumont) G. Don
1946
Stitt, R.E.
1. Selfed and open-pollinated progeny of a procumbent plant of Lespedeza cuneata were studied. 2. From observation of selfed lines the procumbent plants appear to be homozygous. 3. Natural crossing of the procumbent plants were assurgent plants varied from 61.4 to 80.9%. 4. Petaliferous flowers may be naturally either self- or cross-pollinated. Progeny from apetalous flowers indicate that they are always self-pollinated. 5. Segregation in the F2 indicates a complex type of inheritance. 6. Variation in segregation between F2 lines suggests that pollen from a number of assurgent lines was effective in bringing about natural crosses.
