Landraces and heirloom (Part 1)

and “filial” is not a new word :wink:

https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/filial

They quote gregor mendel ( from here on page 101) who specifically mentions F1’s of impure parents

EDIT: I think the quote was actually from William Castle. I’m not sure why gregor is listed as a coauthor but briefly looking around that doesn’t appear to be true. But still, having the shorthand defined over 110 years ago in a biology textbook is good enough for me :grin:
