Data have been presented showing the behavior of striping as found in plants resulting from a cross between Ruakura and a strain of Avena sterilis macrocarpa. The occurrence of 17 striped plants out of a total Of 386 plants in the second generation suggested an approach to a 15 : 1 ratio. Later results obtained from the F3 generation proved that this was not the case. Further results obtained from crosses in which the striped plants were pollinated with pollen from fully green plants and also in which the green plants were pollinated with pollen from the striped plants, showed that the behavior of the chlorophyll deficiency is not to be explained as due to the chromosomes but is apparently cytoplasmic in nature.
