Animal DNA Laboratory are now testing for the
DILUTE gene in cats

As we mentioned in our last newsletter, we are now starting testing for the Dilute gene in cats. This will help you to save time and avoid wasting money in your breeding when you have desired outcomes about color.

The effect of the dilute gene is that:

Black dilutes to Blue, Chocolate dilutes to Lilac, Cinnamon dilutes to Fawn and Red dilutes to Cream.

The following are the range of results for the dilute gene;

D/D = This cat does not carry the dilute gene.

D/d = This cat is a carrier of the dilute gene.

d/d = This cat carries two copies of the dilute gene. The coat color is diluted.

The dilute gene (or melanophilin) affects the distribution of melanin granules within the cats hair. The dominant or dense (D) form of the gene produces dense pigmentation while the recessive dilute (d) form results in pigment clumping, forming areas in the hair with no granules. This causes the cat coat to dilute or lighten.

The dilute effect is autosomal recessive, hence a cat requires two copies of the (d) form for the coat to dilute.

The cost of the Dilute test is $40 AUD
(Approximately $33 USD / $24 EUR)

Don't forget to get your animal association, club or society to register with us to receive a 10% discount on the price of all tests.

UC Davis teste pour les mêmes gènes (et d'autres) et les fonds récoltés sont réinvestis dans la recherche.

J'ai de gros pblms de connection, alors si je ne réponds pas, c'est qu'il y a un soucis !

Perso, c'est clair que celà va m'intéresser... on va enfin pouvoir travailler sur plus de 2 générations sans repasser par un étalon cinnamon, c'est génial!
