Great info throughout this thread.....
I've always been under the impression that striped, banded, aberrant, Newport, scrambled, etc. morphs were the product of polymorphism and none were recessive, dominant nor codominant......
Maybe no one ever did the "research" or counted the morphs their offspring expressed.....
Maybe the thought of locality phenotypes was lost with the morph craze.....
This is why I enjoy your site so much Ross.....after all of these years no one has put together the California king info like you have...I commend you on that.....
I've always wondered if the MSP trait with thayeri was codominant.....when a MSP is bred to a leonis their offspring seem to be mainly MSPs but it does depend on the parents of the sire and dam....
I believe many traits are recessive and codominantbut variability/polymorphism hides the idea that it occurs.......
Hell.....we just proved recently that the melanistic trait in thayeri was truly recessive........ ----- John Lassiter
Poor planning and procrastination on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...
