some additional information is incorrect.



It labels Supers as being synoymous with dominant.



A animal isn't dominant or co-dominant, the mutation is. Hypomelanism in boas is dominant. Meaning that the heterozygous and homozygous forms have the same phenotype. If the heterozygous and homozygous forms had difference phenotypes it would be co-dominant.



In recessive mutations the heterozygous animals have the same phenotype of wild type animals, because wild type is dominant over the mutation. Make sense?



Not your fault, it is the incorrect information circulating the web. The internet is a great place for information, sadly no one is here to check it.
