We have measured the relative cross sections of ..pi../sup +/ and ..pi../sup -/ electroproduction from protons and neutrons, and combined them in a way which permits a new, detailed comparison with the quark parton model of the nucleon. We confirm the expected behavior with 1/..omega.. of the quark charge ratio and the quark fragmentation function.
