OK, now I am really confused because Wisema stated "Stripe is dominant to motley" and now Funk you are stating "Stripe is recessive to motley".

Yet I believe my cornsnake morph book at home says that they are both recessive genes to wild type and both require two copies to be expressed, but yet that one copy of each creates somthing in between because both allels are at the same loci and neither have dominance to each other.

Who's right? Will they look more like stripe with some motley influence, or will they look more like motley with stripe influence, or will they just be randomly something in between.

Is there no concensus, or is this still debated, or are observed results variable?

Thanks for your input
