With _Reseda odorata_ I have found certain individuals quite sterile with their own pollen, and so it is with the indigenous _Reseda lutea._ The self-sterile plants of both species were perfectly fertile when crossed with pollen from any other individual of the same species.

With respect to species living under their natural conditions, of which only certain individuals are self-sterile (as with _Reseda lutea_), it is probable that these have been rendered self-sterile to ensure occasional cross-fertilisation, whilst other individuals have remained self-fertile to ensure the propagation of the species.

Galton, who has had much experience in statistical researches, to examine some of my tables of measurements, seven in number, namely, those of Ipomoea, Digitalis, Reseda lutea, Viola, Limnanthes, Petunia, and Zea.

The crossed and self-fertilised offspring from a partially self-sterile plant of Reseda odorata were almost equal in weight, though not in height.
