This list is getting LONG! I will alphabatize/reorganize this list soon to make it easier to navigate. I would like to eventually get most basic combinations listed here. I obviously cannot list them all because the variations are fairly widespread at this point.

If anyone ever catches any errors please let me know.

This is also a good site everyone should bookmark for quick referance makes things really easy http://www.geneticswizard.com/

[Flyride]

plug them into the gentics wizard it will show you the exact percentages

[TopNotchBoas]

Yeah that genetics wizard thing is really neat.

All these traits are reccessive right? I know hypos can be dominate, I think they have to be f2's (hypoxhypo). And pastel is (co?)dominate. Are there any other dominate boa morphs I should be considering as well?

[Da Mac Man]

hypo is codominate to.

[TopNotchBoas]

Is ghost, sunglow and snow all reccessive?

What about stripe?

The only (boa) morphs I know of that are dominant/codominant are hypos, jungles and pastels. Are there any more?

[Da Mac Man]

all of those have to have DH parents. For the first 2 only one has to be hypo, but for the snow, but have to be het for anery and het for albino.

[TopNotchBoas]

Yes, I know.... But is there a scientific name for the type of gene that requires double het?

So is the ghost/snow/sunglow traits known as recessive, co-dominant or dominant or none of the above?

And what about stripe?

[Da Mac Man]

well, stripe is supposed to be dominant, or is it codominant? and I don't think that there is a name for them.

[TopNotchBoas]

Also, it doesnt have to be a double het to get snow,sunglow or ghost to get snows,sunglows or ghosts, does it? Wouldnt homozygous parents produce homozygous offspring?

P.S. - I expanded the list further and will continue to do so till I have them all written out 8).
