First of all, it would be intergeneric hybrid for this example, NOT an intergrade.
Secondly, mathematically speaking, each F1 gets EXACTLY 50% of each parents genetics, and passes on EXACTLY 50% of its genes when bred. Now it seems quite obvious to me that it would be possible, yet not probable, that two F1 siblings could very well contribute the same half of their DNA to produce a 100% pure corn or king. Even greater odds of an F1 bred to a pure corn or king. But like I said, it's not probable.
Another thing I'm sort of seeing with this theory I'm developing is that it seems pretty logical that if, for example, a Honduran Milk Snake escaped into southern California and crossed with a California King Snake (a large concern to many purists), within a few generations, it is possible that the Honduran genes would dissappear rather than polluting and ruining an entire species. I think nature has a way of fixing itself. I'm going to quit rambling now... ----- ~Venom~
