“It was not long, however, before the results of Baur on Antirrhinum and of Morgan on Drosophila, supplemented by scattered observations on other forms, gave evidence of the occurence of numerous Mendelizing mutations, many of them small ones, in varied directions, and they showed no discoverable relation between the type of mutation and the type of environment or condition of living under which it arose.”
“The phenomenon is not confined to woody plants, but has been met with in chicory, in _Antirrhinum_, and other herbaceous species.”
