I dont understand these graphs, is this like a punnet square? I jsut cant make out how this works..
You can't get around the punnett square in genetics...
The "-" represents the w chromosome (the "Y" of birds if you like).
It has no chocolate gene or wildtype chocolate gene. So what is on the other chromosome (Z or the X of birds) will always show.
Also the animals with the "-" are the females.
In the lavender punnett square sexchromosome/gender is not a factor. The outcome represents both genders.
OK im starting to get it....2 more cups of coffee..its starting to click... thank you.
In chickens the W = male and Z =female ? the - = female and + = male? Just trying to peel that away first in my head... see if I have that clear.
