Hi,
If you wanted to compare the genome to other known hets this would cost an fortune. Mapping the genome of a single individual is expensive and time consuming as it is, therefore the likelihood of mapping several with the intention of being able to identify hets is unlikley to happen any time soon.

I am also unaware of any mapped genes responsible for camparable mutations in other reptiles.
