It appears as though Clark's original albino male was lavender, and through line breading he produced all 3 phases. If the phase allele is separate, yet apparently tightly linked, and breading a purple to a white produces all lavender and so on, I am curious why the purple is more valuable. It seems that the purple and white should be equally abundant, and lavenders may predominate.

Additionally, why are the purple tigers and supertigers apparently so rare?

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Also, is there a defined method to determine amel from Clark. I have a white tiger, and wounder if I can be 100% certain
