The Matsushima-lined yellow leaves give a few green mutants (about 3.5%) and some Matsushima or green-variegated yellows (about 20%) in their Progeny, and the type is transmitted as a recessive to the green. Such unusual behaviors of the Matsushima-lined yellows are due to a factor which gives habitually mutations of yellow into green.
