To the four or five described cases of sex-limited heredity in poultry another is added.The Jungle-fowl and its derivative, the Brown Leghorn, have the hackle and saddle feathered “laced” with red. The upper wing coverts of the cock are also red, forming the “wing bar.” In the Dark Brahma, on the other hand, the red is not formed on the hackle and saddle and is nearly absent on the wing bar of the male, so that the red is replaced by white.If, now, a male Dark Brahma be crossed with a female Brown Leghorn, or if the cross be made in the opposite direction, all sons are white-laced; but the wing bar is red. Thus, in these sons the white lacing is dominant but the white wing bar appears to be recessive. The most important point, however, is that the sons derived from the reciprocal crosses are practically indistinguishable.With the daughters this is by no means the case. When the father is white-laced, the daughter is also; but if the father is redlaced the daughter is likewise; i. e., the daughter's lacing...
