My understanding of backcrossing is taking a male of the progeny from the line and crossing back to the original mom used. Where I get a bit confused is when you see bx2 bx3 ect. Would this be taking a male from the f1 and crossing it back to the mom, then doing that again with those progeny for the bx2? Does it delineate which generation the bx came from, such as a bx3 being a back cross from the f3 generation? Or would that be f3bx?
Not all breeders seems to use the same terminology either which makes it a bit more confusing.
