Genetic Recombination in the Eggplant Jungle

What you see here, in the bottom right hand corner, is an all white indian eggplant on a plant that is also producing regularly patterned indian eggplants. What sort of mischievous bees have been pollinating my eggplants? Genetic recombination appears to be running rampant in my garden, because I also have some all purple indian eggplants on another plant that also has some regularly patterned indian eggplants on it.

Should I save these oddball seeds?

My guess is that you are looking at immature egglants that will not produce viable seed.
Drat!
