Bold Stripe recessive?

[GroovyGeckos.com]

That was it. Thats the thing, they seem to act recessive, unless they are bred pattern to pattern. Still a bit confusing, especially with this abberant baby Marcia hatched.:main_cool3:

Marcia's hatchling looks more banded then aberrant to me.

Dan, since you've paired these groups, could you post pictures of the parents & then their respective offspring?

Bands go straight across, those seem to dip in towards the center. Odd shaped, and even curved bands count if you ask me. Also it has the small aberrancy on the tail.I know its not much, but thats as aberrant as some get.

I wish, Im actually missing alot of pictures. I just got my computer back after having it crash on me. I posted them on Fauna pretty much as it happened though. The ones from Red Stripe x Reverse Stripe, and APTOR X Red Stripe I mean.

As far as this year goes, I havent really taken many pictures yet.

These are 06ers from APTOR X "Patternless Red Stripe". The Patternless Red Stripes were key in stumbling upon the "secrets" of the APTOR. (lol) We hatched them last year from breeding Red Stripe to Reverse Stripe Albino.

I think that some bold stripes may have some Red striep in them??? This could explain as to why the 2 genes mix so well.

F2 or Second generation

Female

With this generation we were working for bold stripes that did not break up as the gecko matured. We were also increasing the size of our Stripes. This female weighs over 70g when laying.

so.. in those cross stripe, reverse and jungle look like correlate...(i think stripe is a special kind of jungle,and is really interesting think the reverse stripe like the result of jungle X stripe)...
do you think guys there are others traits correlated with them? (the spot at the end of the body near the tail for example for the het stripe geckos)..and whats about the partial stripe? any correlations?

I think we need a genetics 101 for some of us! I'lll be the first to sign up!!! I'm searching for my Genetics for DUMMIES book right now!

Did someone say genetics 101? Hehehehe


.....................more to come, maybe

What I think you are referring to is what I have said is going on with Ultra & Amel in cornsnakes. Ultra & Amel are both recessive mutations, but Codominant to eachother. However, I'm not sure how that works if the "base" morphs aren't recessive.

making ultra, WT and amel on the same locust of the chromosome? thats fascinating! so thiers aa, au, uu and WT phenotypes? crossing two au's would be interesting, eliminating the possibility of producing WT's but still producing three variations.

If anyone is interested in seeing a photo of the banded baby I got from stripe x stripe, here is the link to the thread. (I'll try to combine the two threads if I can figure out how to do it correctly...)

Yup!

These are 06ers from APTOR X "Patternless Red Stripe".

i love the pic! itd be cool to see a picture with a full spectrum of hatchlings from all the morphs.

OK well i'm sorry to dig this up from WAY long ago.....but i have just dug through 20 pages of search results. Has this debate ever been figured out? I think i have the understanding that is a polygenic trait??

The reason i bring this up is because of the direction i will be going with my current as well as future projects.

Thanks,

Nope! The jury is deadlocked... looks like it will be a mis-trial!

hmmmm maybe i can borrow some of those flying monkeys.....hehehehe

There are IMO also, different lines of stripes. They are not a simple recessive gene IMO, and that is why they will not "follow the rules" of normal recessive genetics, as we know them.

Edit: OOps thought this was a new thread. Oldie but goodie.
