Von den differirenden Merkmalen, welche in die Versuche eingeführt wurden, sind nachfolgende dominirend:
Of the differing traits which were introduced to the experiments, the following are dominating:

differing traits = differirenden Merkmalen Bateson has “differentiating characters”, we follow Sherwood’s translation; see p. 5, s. 5.

dominating = dominirend See p. 10, s. 14.

introduced = eingeführt Bateson has “used”, Sherwood “utilized”. Mendel is in fact using the German word for “introduce” here, as if the traits were extraneous to the experiments. Another possible translation would be “insert”.
