While I agree with most of what has been said in this thread, I have to politley disagree with the comment that the dodoma and nuke are not just line bred traits. You cannot have a het for dodamo, flame or nuclear. Can these line bred traits show through in their offspring? Of course they will just like your own children will have a tendancy to look similar in some ways to both parents. Does this mean that a line bred trait is not genetic? No, obviously if some traits will be passed on through dna then it is genetic but not in the way that everyone thinks.
A morph must be able to be reproduced consistantly.
We see the dodoma influence in many of the other morphs that are on the market, this is called, get ready, a "line bred morph". lolol. pretty simple IMO.
If I remeber correctly, which I may not, Roy started with some very high orange dodoma animals and went from there.
