Questions about Coral Glow

[OhhWatALoser]

I am still trying to figure this gene out and all the different things about it. I have an understanding of the genetics of it but am lost on a few things. First is the sex linking thing. Not really understanding it and I watched the vid by Kevin and still really do not understand that part so if someone could explain the male makers/female makers and all of that it would awesome.

Starters, it's not sex linked. Otherwise it would easily explainable, Linked to the Z-chromosome or W-Chromosome. What we are seeing is a phenomenon without a name I know of. Here is someone who explains it all pretty well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=71ZoSk0vGiY just remember his theory and math are in fact theories. We do not know exactly how the gene works, just making guesses based off of limited clutches.

Using his numbers, assume banana x normal pairing.
Female bananas make normal sex ratios, 25% male banana, 25% female banana, 25% male normal, 25% normal female.
Male banana whos banana parent was the mother: 5% male banana, 45% female banana, 45% male normal, 5% female normal
Male bananas whos banana parent was the father: 45% male banana, 5% female, 5% male normal, 45% female normal

Once supers start breeding might even get more interesting.
