I see well it is very interesting anyway. Too bad it likely won't happen for a while. I was thinking in other species (non-reptile species) they do seem to know which locus is responsible for albinism for example. Unfortunately it isn't likely in the same place in snakes.

Interesting discussion anyway,

>>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.
