Greetings genetic gurus,
I'm mostly versed in colour locus queries but I've run into a wall with the K locus of an ee and an atat, And if they are both likely KB in which case an at dogs offspring with any dog that has no at factor, even if we and no black would never produce a black and tan.
I know black n tan dogs are at at, theoretically tri color in the regards of 'tan point marking'. I been led to understand that to whelp a tan point you need 2 copies of at. Ay Sable overides at. Even though some Sable seems to look like bnt but have no at as overun by ay.
Is there any chance of producing even one tan point from anything other than two at factored? How about the possibility of an ee dog with no chance of at to mate with an atat?
The reason I ask is that I'm in NZ and there are simply no bnt dogs. NZ only has 4'000 poms anyhow and most are pet dogs with no special breeding, and infact 6kg dogs (3kg over a true pom).
Any help is appreciated, and also as I mentioned I'm happy to give advice on anything other than this bnt issue
