normal, high yellow, and tangerine are ALL controlled by the same genes. But there is more than 1 gene (probably several). So to achieve the tangerine coloring you must breed the ones with the traits to desire to others to make tangerines. That is what line bred means.

Neither one is more dominant. You will most likely get a mix. With these types of genes its kind of like breeding dogs. If you breed a Dalmation with a German Shepard you get something in between.
