Mostly a good write up. My major quibbles are with the symbols. In modern genetics, the plus character is the recognized symbol for the normal allele in genetics. And all alleles of a multiple allele series have the same base character(s) but different superscripts except the first mutant of the series, which has no superscript:



s = sharp albino (and s is the name of the locus)

s^c = caramel hypo

s^(plus character) = normal



Everything to the left of the ^ character is the base, and everything to the right of the ^ character is the superscript. I'm using the ^ to separate the base from the superscript because this editor will not do superscripts. It will not do the plus symbol, either.
