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.....
Yep, all that and the fact that most keepers didn't know what was going on with these different morphs in the wild. I give Brian Hubbs all the credit in the world for bringing that to my attention. He's the one that got me interested in searching out the various Cal king morphs of So Cal.
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.....
Thanks a lot, John. That means a lot! I've learned a lot my self, gathering the information.
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.......
This reminds me of the striped Cal kings. In order to really understand their genetics, you must breed locality specimens as well, not just go by captive produced kings of unknown origin.
Hell.....we just proved recently that the melanistic trait in thayeri was truly recessive........
I'm surprised it took so long. Maybe the interest just wasn't there.
