I was aware of Childer's efforts and used them as a guide. I made the crosses I had more than once. Sex ratios not important other than both sexes needed to test fertility. Data presented above does NOT address fertility of hybrids. Some flat out needs to be repeated.

Sex ratios do not mean squat if only single mating's used. I am being forward on that because pseudo-replication has seriously degraded the validity of some of that science. Yet it keeps getting past forward without any scrutiny.
