Lesser is not dominant over mojave. I have absolutely no idea how you can even come to that conclusion.
I'll be correct and say all the incomplete dominant morphs are incomplete dominant with the normal, all dominant morphs are dominant to the normal and all recessive are recessive. why is this? because what we classify a gene is, is compared to the normal.
Incomplete dominant (co-dom in the bp world) has 3 different phenotypes. Back to the lesser
2x Normal = Normal
Normal and Lesser = Lesser
2x Lesser = BEL
So looking at this information it is quite obvious that lesser does not dominant over the normal allele, because when the normal allele is not present the phenotype changes. The lesser we identify is the combination of the lesser and normal allele, its not JUST the lesser allele, as that would be a white snake with blue eyes. Incomplete dominance. not dominant.
Now for lesser mojave, we are not comparing them to normal, just each other.
2x Lesser = white snake
Lesser and Mojave = white snake
2x Mojave = grey head
So we have the same phenotype with Homozygous Lesser and Lesser/Mojave, The Mojave gene has no baring on the phenotype. Thus Lesser dominants over Mojave. This in no way effect their relationship with normal, which is incomplete dominance for both
So that how I came to that conclusion, I suggest you refresh on your classifications, what you are spreading is just misinformation.
