Conversely, if a white father is paired with a green mother with functional chloroplasts, the progeny will only inherit functional chloroplasts, and will thus be green. In his 1909 paper, he established variegated leaf color as the first conclusive example of

Mendelian traits behave independently of the sex of the source parent, leaf color depended greatly on which parent had which trait. For instance,
