From his initial observation, Gregor forms a hypothesis, which he hopes will eventually prove correct. 'sSoon, dear peas, you will self-pollinate. Don'st disappoint me!'s he says to the plants, after pollinating the F1 generation with each other During the next several weeks in the year 1865, new garden peas emerge. Gregor enters his favorite retreat and, with eager steps, walks to his sprouting babies
He bends down to look at his experiment in progress. A wide smile crosses his face. 'sAha! As I expected!'s
What did he expect What would you expect the new pea plants to look like
(From Call Me Gene, page 47)
