What would i get if i bred a Murphy Patternless with a Tangerine.

 

[Wandering Paddle]

some form of tangerine heterozygous for murphys patternless. patty is a simple recessive trait.

i recommend doing a little research on dominate, co dominate, incomplete dominate, simple recessive, incomplete recessive,and polygenic traits.

www.leopardgeckowiki.com, http://www.leopardgecko.co.uk/documents/caresheet/genetics.htm, and http://www.geckosetc.com/htm/genetics.htm are good sites to try

this is a good thread to check out as well: http://geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=42525

What type of tangerine isit?? Hypo or what?

All babies would be a variety of tangs (if parent is hypo tang then babies would be similar), het for Murphy Patternless.
Doug-great info sites btw.

I thought it would be:

Tangerine x patternless

50% tangerine of type het patternless
50% normal het patternless

By of type i mean it could be hypo, super hypos etc
The % is that of each individual egg

your percentages are set up as if tangerine was a simple dominate trait, but it is polygenic and therefore percentages dont apply

That is why in a previous post i was asking what type of tangerine it was, Hypo, Super hypo, etc.
