Abstract
Dichotomic serial sequences of fruits of two types (with and without seeds) on shoots were analyzed in sugar beet upon apozygotic reproduction. Serial sequences were analyzed using serial statistical tests. The distribution of fruits of the two types was nonrandom in most cases. The variation of serial sequences is considered in terms of the epigenetic variation of discrete characters in plants.
