put in proportion = in Verhältniss gesetzt Bateson has “Ratios”, Sherwood “Expressed in terms of ratios”; see p. 3, s. 8. Mendel could have filled in the formulas for the absolute number of individuals in the first three rows as well (“2(2n-1) -2(n-1)”, “2n” and “2(2n-1) -2(n-1)”). They are also lacking in the manuscript. Thanks to Michel Durinx for pointing this out.
