Igenity® Color Coat

$5.00

SKU: 44-1010
Best For: All
Type: Add-on Test Only
Pairs with: Igenity Beef

Coat color genes determine red or black coat. Black is the dominant trait. With "Yes" results (homozygous black), all progeny will be black even when mated to recessive red animals. With "No" results (heterozygous), half of the progeny will be black and half will be red when mated to recessive red animals. Some breeds also have a diluter gene, which can cause a lighter base coat color. Typically, gray in black cattle, and tan to orange in red cattle.
