Hello, another quick question relating to genetics. If anyone has any insight, I'd be much obliged. Unlike rats, mice and dogs, there seems to be a distinct lack of data to be drawn from, and so I have found myself at a blank, again.
When discussing the 'C' loci in relation to the Syrian hamster, there appears to be two presently identified alternate alleles from the wild type (Extreme Dilute & Dark Eared White?).
I'm unable to find any discussion on how these alleles display phenotypically if a pup was born to a parent homozygous for Extreme Dilute when the second parent is homozygous for Dark Eared White. The pups would obviously obtain an allele of either, but how does this express when genetically 'cdce'? Does one recessive allele take dominance over the other, or is there some degree of blending?
Regards and thanks, Crice
