A few years ago I noticed some of my lines had a tendency for the antho to concentrate in the stripes and I started selecting for that trait in a few of them. The white cherry line is where I think it is best expressed. One of this year's F1 lines is a cross with an earlier generation of this and a striped rin/rin cherry line that I am anxious to see the F2's from, I was potentially sending it south to be grown out this winter.

This picture is of a different F1 trial from this season with a red slicer line and a yellow cocktail line that has the accumulation in the stripes; it's still being expressed in the F1 so I'm anxious to see if I can get more diverse parent lines with the traits fixed.
