If you breed two Rex carriers (Rxrx) there is 25% chance of the pups will be Rex (rxrx). As Rex, rx, is a recessive gene this is why it written lower case the babies will need two of these genes to express this phenotype so they will be rxrx. Any dominant gene written with an uppercase letter I.e Rx (normal hair) a baby will only need one of these genes to express this trait they will never express the recessive trait. 50% chance of the pups will be Rex carriers (Rxrx) and 25% chance will not be Rex or Rex carriers (RxRx). |
Thank you. Does a dominant gene like Satin gets carried also?
