Bei allen Versuchen erschienen daher sämmtliche Formen, welche die gemachte Voraussetzung verlangte, und zwar in nahezu gleicher Anzahl.
In all trials, therefore, all forms appeared which the proposed presupposition demanded, and they did so in almost equal quantities.
trials = Versuchen See p. 3, s. 6.
forms = Formen See p. 3, s. 8.
presuppositon = Voraussetzung Bateson has “theory”, Sherwood “hypothesis”. Mendel is referring to the assumption made on p. 24, s. 8 that “as many different kinds of germ cells (germ vesicles) are formed in the ovary, and as many kinds of pollen cells in the anthers, as constant combination forms are possible”.
quantity = Anzahl See p. 3, s. 8.
