    Re: Understanding the platty gene?

    I'm getting closer to a complete understanding.

    But if you breed a mojave/lesser BEL to a normal, there is a chance of getting a BEL.

    But the platty(lesser with hidden platty gene) by normal, you can't get a platty.
    Any explanation for this?

    Am I really over looking something truely obvious?

    Nope, no chance of getting a BEL from BEL x Normal. You will only get Mojaves & Lessers in that pairing.

    Your getting the phenotype mixed up with the genotype.

    Also that genes come in pairs and each parent can provide only one of the genes for every location.
