Anery, but which one

phoenix79 Jun 16, 2006 03:43 PM

I have read that there are 2 different anery morphs, A and B. What are the differences and can you tell visually which it is? Thanks

Contrast is the best way to tell... Anery A tends to be far more contrasty between saddle and background color than Charcoal (Anery B).

Some people will tell you you can tell based on whether the corn has yellow on it's neck or not. The yellow is not a reliable tell, unfortunately. Both morphs can have yellow on their neck, and both can lack it.

If you can't tell visually, breeding trials can be used. Interpret the results carefully though, because many Charcoals are het (or homozygous!) for Anery A as well.
