Genetics Question

aanata1 Mar 10, 2008 09:26 AM

I am really good at genetics from when I took it in college, so I understand how to make ghosts from aneries and hypos. I was wondering about amels/albinos. Are they a product of breeding different mutations, or a mutation itself? Thanks!

From what I've seen, albinism ia typically a single gene recessive mutation.
