corn genetic question...

[wyz]

Ok... I think I know that one, but I wanna double check..
So please answer if you know the answer, not if you think you know it :)

If I breed an anery with an amelansic

I get babies that are het for snow. Wich mean they are double HET anery/amel. This part is clear..

So if I take these babies and breed them together, I expect to get 6.25% (1 on 16 chances) of getting a snow offspring.

That assuming that I'm considering them double hets..

If I use the term het for snow instead of double het for anery and amel.
One could assume that breeding a male het for snow to a female het for snow would result in
25% snow
25% regular
50% het for snow.

So wich one is correct ?

I think it's 1 in 16, Am i Right ?

Thanks.
WYZ

Using the corn genetic program (mick's) this is my results.

25% het for snow
12.50% Anery het amel
12.50% Amel het Anery
12.50% het anery
12.50% het amel
6.25% snow
6.25% Anery
6.25% Amel
6.25% Normal

I believe this is correct. I used female het anery & amel, male het anery & amel.

Yup Marisa is correct.
That is the answer to the paring IF there are no other genes around the corn snake pool (which I really doubt no a days.....lol....)


Good luck with your pair wyz~~
