Notes	1. It was made clear that the process of aurone formation in the flower petals of garden snapdragon, Antirrhinum mujus, L, could be affected by a definite gene which was induced mutationally in an albino white flower strain maintained throughout several generations by self-polination. 2. The crossing tests and the biochemical analyses, such as paper-chromatography and spectrophotometric measurement, with the aurone pigments in flower petals of F_1 hybrids have been carried out. The F_1 hybrids used were raised from the parallel crossing between an albino white strain provided with the present aurone blocking gene and certain normal cyanic strains, as well as between the normal albino strain and the same coloured strains. 3. In the former F_1 hybrid group, the process of aurone formation in petals was completely checked by this gene, which behaved as a simple dominant one, and those hybrid forms could contribute, in consequence, to the new breeding of variously mono-coloured beautiful snapdragon varieties.
