ABSTRACT THE eighteenth-century hybridisers—Kölreuter, Knight, Sageret, Gärtner—studied almost exclusively interspecific crosses, although Sageret, like Mendel, gave his attention to pairs

of contrasted characters. This method of choosing the most complicated rather then the simplest cases in investigating the laws of heredity continued largely in vogue, with the great

exception of Mendel, until near the end of the nineteenth century, and retarded for at least half a century the understanding of these laws. Following the rediscovery of the Men-delian

analysis, investigators for many years dealt with variety differences, mainly in domesticated plants and animals. But with elucidation of the Mendelian principles, research on

species-hybrids soon began again in such work as that of Baur on _Antirrhinum_ and of East on _Nicotiana_. Later genetical work has drifted more and more into the investigation of genera by

crossing and cytological study of their species. _Artbastarde bei Pflanzen_. O. Renner. (Handbuch der Vererbungswissenschaft, herausgegeben von E. Baur und M. Hartmann, Lieferung 7, Band 2.)
