genetics question

[jompiej]

hello,

I was wondering what I whould get if i would breed 1.1 thamnophis radix het. axantic together?
and what I would get if i would breed 1thamnophis radix het. axantic to a normal radix?

hope you understand

jerom.

this is my understanding:
in both cases you may end up with some axanthics
in the first case, I think your chances would be 50%
in the second 25%
those are the statistical chances
your real numbers will likely be different

two hets will make 25% axanthic and the rest will be 100% het for axantic and i think the second one would be 50% hets

thank you both!
so the second one wil be poss. het axanthic

but axanthic is a co-dominant gen. whouldn'd that make is hom. fox axanthic?

[EdgyExoticReptiles]

lol co-dominant? if i knew what that was i could probaly figure it out, i know that a normal morph those would be the babies

thank you both!

[jompiej]

no, i have it now.
if I breed het. axantic X het. axanthic I would get 25% axanthic 25% normal
and 50 % het. axanthic.
if I breed a het. axanthic to a normal animal I would get 25% het. axanthic and the rest are normal animals.

co-dominant meens that 2 genes are both dominant, and then the young have both collors.

for instance:
you have 1 red flower en 1 white flower, when you ''breed'' them, you get a pink flower.

sorry for the bad english, it's difficult to explain

[drache]

that sounds much better than what I came up with

[EdgyExoticReptiles]

lol oh its like the snow morph?

[jompiej]

no idea if snow is co-dominant, I'm not really into morphs (yet)

[reptileparadise]

Indeed, Co-dominant is like the snow morph (in leopardgeckos that is...)
Co-dominant means that animals can be visual carriers of a gene, without having both alleles.
Ussually, there is a super form (like in leopardgeckos again, the 'supersnow')
If you breed two co- dominant animals together, you will get 25% 'superform' 50 % co-dom en 25 % normals. Just like in the recessive business. Just a bit different.

What Jerom is talking about, white flower X red flower = orange flower is incomplete dominance.
