Its just a gene in a slot. A bird can have one copy, two copies or no copies regardless of any other genes it has or doesn't have. The combination of all the genes determines if it shows, doesn't show or where it shows.

What do you mean? Exist by itself? Any bird can have dominate white. I know its common to have black underneath but I don't believe its common for leghorns to. Also not unheard of to have blue or Splash with other breeds but don't believe that would be the case with leghorns. Pretty much unheard...

Hatchery white leghorns have two copies of dominate white. Dominate white doesn't cover gold/red tones so whatever is underneath doesn't have any of those. Never had one that was self black underneath. I've heard blue or splash but I think that would be extremely rare if at all.
