Me and a Friend are trying to figure out if a Super Pastel will reproduce another super and if not why? Bees make Bees when bred to a normal. Would a Super pastel bred to a Spider make Killer Bees? Or would it make half spiders with half those being Bees. I hope someone will be able to anwser our Question

A Super Pastel will not reproduce and other Super Pastel, if you put him with a normal you are going to get all Pastel not Supel. If you bred you Super Paster to your Spider you may get 50% paster and 50% Bees.

tha only way to make another super is if its bred to another pastel or super

In a diploid organism, there are two alleles at each gene's locus (location/position) on the chromosome. A Super Pastel has two Pastel alleles but can pass only one of them to each offspring. Thus each offspring produced when breeding a Super Pastel to a normal would be Pastel.

In the case of a Bumblebee producing a Bumblebee when bred to a normal, that is possible because the Pastel gene and the Spider gene are not at the same locus and therefore the Bumblebee can pass both the Pastel gene and the Spider gene to the same offspring.

You said it!

Super pastel = PP
Bumble = SsPp
Wild = sspp

PP x pp -> 100% Pp = pastel
SsPp x sspp -> sspp SsPp ssPp Sspp wild/bumble/pastel/spider
----sp---SP---sP---Sp
sp-sspp-SsPp-ssPp-Sspp

You explained this perfectly.

Now you know,I woundered it a few Years back. It was a Good question for a newbe.j/k

I've seen a post somewhere below that would tell you most anything You would want to know about Breeding and how it works. Good luck
