Here are some additional sources from a research paper from North Carolina University. Very little research done on this phenomenon. I am accumulating data for a possible research paper on this. But have no solid data yet in all plant genera. Since this is an avocation of mine, I don't know when ill get around to doing a paper on it. Thanks for your updates on yet another plant species having tricotyledons. The behaivior of tomato Polycotyledons was very much like that described by DeVries (Ueber Trictyle Rassen. Ber. d. Deutsch Bot. Gesellsch. 20:pp 45-54. 1902; and in Opera VI; pp 314-322) for many plants, not including tomatoes. MacArthur, J. W. (X-ray mutations in the tomato. Jour. Hered. 25:(No 2) pp.75-78, 1934) reported a progeny from x-rayed seed which was 25% polycotylous but the trait seemed to be unfixable. F.U.G. Agrelius (Kansas State Teachers Coll. Emporia Kan.-Botanical notes-in Kansas. Acad. Sci. Trans. 32:117-118, 1929 and F. C. Gates, Trans. 31:49-50, 1928) grew plants from tricotyledonous tomatoes and failed to obtain similar types in their progenies. The data i need is more than likely spread in the literature of the state experimental stations. The data is usually buried in other research as it was in this one. Here's the history of the crossses used to create the lines. PART I RESEARCH NOTES Resistance to late blight and southern bacterial wilt. Barham, W. W., and Ellis, D. E. As a result of the cooperative tomato breeding project, the Departments of Horticulture and Plant Pathology at North Carolina State College have developed a number of tomato lines possessing good field resistance to southern bacterial wilt. However, only a few of these lines have fruits approaching marketable size. In 1950, one line, 45-1-1-1-1, had several plants with fruit of marketable size (1/4 to 1/3 pound); however, these fruits contained only a few seeds and were of poor quality. Crosses were made in the greenhouse between this resistant, large fruited line and other resistant lines with smaller fruit. Plants from the progenies of these crosses, along with more than 200 breeding lines selected in 1950, were tested in the greenhouse and field in the spring and summer of 1951. The more promising selections from these lines will be evaluated for quality and yield in replicated tests in 1952. Seedlings of late blight resistant and susceptible parental lines and from crosses of resistant with resistant and resistant with susceptible lines were taken to the field in flats when late blight was very active. Those seedlings had inoculum sprinkled over them; late blight developed uniformly in all thirty flats, killing all susceptible plants. From this test it is possible to conclude that inheritance of resistance to late blight is not fully recessive and that segregation in F2 indicates a more complicated type of inheritance than a single factor. However, it was gratifying to find F2 segregates appearing as resistant as the resistant parents. Inheritance of resistance studies will be continued, and the more promising of the advanced breeding lines will be included in the late blight free replicated test in 1952 for quality and yield evaluations. Hairless (hl), a new character in the fifth linkage group. Butler, L. Hairless plants (hl) are characterized by the complete absence of trichomes except for some glands filled with clear fluid. Because of this lack of hair the stamens tend to be dialytic. Hairless plants can be told from smooth (H) plants by the absence of hair on the hypocotyl. Smooth plants (HH) have a few hairs at the growing tip and many hairs on the hypocotyl and the adjacent part of the stem. Crosses between smooth and hairless give F2 ratios of 9 smooth to 4 hairless to 3 hairy. The hairless gene is in the fifth linkage group, 19 cross-over units from green stem (a). Limited data indicates that it is between jointless and green stem. The seed of hairless was obtained from Dr. E. A. Kerr of the Horticultural Experimental Station, Vineland, where the mutation occurred. Sticky peel (pe), a new character in the seventh linkage group. Butler, L. Sticky peel (po) has been fully described by P. A. Young who sent me the seed for linkage tests. The sticky peel plants are light green and very hairy. These have been found to be monogenic characters linked with sticky peel. The characters have been given the following symbols: sticky peel - pe (for peel), very hairy or villous - vi, light green foliage - lg. Preliminary linkage data indicates that all three genes are between the H and t loci of linkage group seven. Jointless-leafy inflorescence. Butler, L. In view of the present interest in these genes it is advisable to give a brief account of their history. Both came from Rouge Niane Hative. Leafy inflorescence was discovered by J. W. MacArthur in 1926, and its linkage with greenstem and faciated was worked out. At this time we know the penetrance of leafy was not complete, so any plant with one or more leafy inflorescences was classified as lf. In 1931 I discovered jointless in an F2 containing leafy and was able to show that it was also linked with the other fifth chromosome genes. Only two apparently non-leafy, jointless plants were found in an F2 of over 14,000, but these unfortunately were not saved. Later MacArthur made selections which were marked Lf j but so far none have proven to be non-leafy. Some of these classifications were the result of the interaction bu and mc with jointless. Others may be because of the lack of penetrance of lf. Last summer I selected an Lf j and kept the plant in the greenhouse all summer. Every inflorescence was jointless and non-leafy. In the fall, cuttings were taken to perpetuate this plant, and on examination I was very surprised to find most of the inflorescences were leafy. Another jointless non-leafy selection would not self, but set good seed when crossed. The F2 segregates from this should indicate whether jointless and leafy are really separate genes or merely pleiotropic effects of the same gene.

Representatives from the company have been saying for years- “It is cosmetic”. Shards of glass coming off the liner mixed with a convection fan, is not cosmetic. ”I have never heard of it happening.” http://www.wolfblueovenchipping.com/case-information/ ”It only has affected a very small number of appliances” and yet some here have had three or more in a row that failed. “It was fixed years ago.” Last case in this forum was reported this year on an induction range. Previously Wolf has brought oven after oven during the full warranty time. They gave this person a hard time. The “M” oven was designed to make it easier to repair. It has been affected too. One tactic Wolf has used in the past is to upsell if possible when people have issues with something like the “E” oven. They get them to pay the difference to buy an M knowing it has the same issues and these fail too.. Even if they had the fix tomorrow, it would take several years to know if it really worked because some go bad after the warranty is out. This happened to me and they would not give me an estimate to repair, only that it would start at $800. I have read of repairs costing $2500. I personally have had issues with blue enamel in Dacor, Electrolux and Wolf so I would not buy blue in anything except Gaggenau.

WM sells powder detergent in reasonable sizes, such as ALL Free & Clear powder. The box is small and the cost is low. Mail order or in store, I've found. Tide powder can be found in non-gigantic size boxes too every so often. Also, Miele website has their powder detergent available for shipping. Colors, Whites or Unscented. The price is dear, but you are only using a small amount per load, so a 4lb box will last you a long time. If we go back to a FL one day, and Miele still makes a powder detergent, we would probably buy theirs even though we do enough laundry here to make one think many people live here that we don't know about. We have a TL, but I'm very diligent about mold and schmutz since we had two foul FLers in the past, in spite of doing everything right. I use both liquid and powder in this washer (not at the same time). 6 years in, and knock wood, nothing suspicious inside the washer. I think the trick is to use a sanitize cycle more than once in a while and use some powder detergent in that cycle, for insurance. Wipe out the gasket at the end of wash day, keep the door ajar, make your last load of the day a hot one, with powder detergent if you choose to buy some. A glug of chlorine bleach once in a while is good too, even if it's just on a cleaning cycle. That's usually when I use chlorine bleach. Most importantly, enjoy your new washer! How exciting!

Hi kittykittymoonbeam, Several of us are having bigproblems typing ontheforums. IIt happens to all of us who use our phones to access the mobile version of the site. I have just sent my third complaint zzto support . I hope they fix it soon. Please send them a complaint using the contact link at the bottom of the page. The more people complain the likelier they are to fix it I hope. Fig, unfortunately clearing cookies and cache doesn't solve the problem for me. I have to type veeery carefully or any mistake will cause repeats and trying to correct them makes worddwords disappear. It's a mess.
