AND this I understand just took longer


Color Inheritance


Imperials are either homozygous Imperial or heterozygous Imperial.

Only one copy of the Imperial gene is required for the Imperial gene to dominate over the Native Black or Gold colors and produce Imperials. A homozygous Imperial bull will always produce Imperial offspring when bred to Native Black females. When bred to Royal females he will always produce Imperial Trims. A heterozygous Imperial bull will produce a mixture of Imperial and Native Black offspring when bred in the same manner.

The Golden yak color is inherited as a recessive trait that requires the homozygous genotype for phenotypic expression. The heterozygous genotype is not expressed, but is a recessive carrier. The inheritance is identical to the red gene in Red and Black Angus cattle.



Imperial is the black nose/color
I could follow if I knew what the terms mean. Weird names I don’t follow , imperial, native.

So all the yaks here are inbred with cattle?
