Paula Emerald Flower

prefix Emerald Flower · British Shorthair · DBE-ALT · line: Nadeya · carries the variant, no blue eye · Variant known, this cat untested

Under the variant field this directory proposes, this cat would read DBE 161 x2|163p. The variant is attributed to this animal from the record and not from a result on it, AND A LINE NOBODY HAS SEQUENCED ALSO STANDS ABOVE IT. TWO DETERMINANTS STAND ABOVE THIS CAT AND THE SCHEME NAMES BOTH RATHER THAN CHOOSING. Where one of them is a line nobody has sequenced, NO TEST NOW AVAILABLE RESOLVES THE FIELD: a clear result on the identified variant leaves the other standing. The proposal is set out in full here, and no registry issues this field today: it is computed from the record at each build and is not part of any registration.

How this cat is connected to the trait

NO RECORDED PARENT LINK JOINS THIS CAT TO A FOUNDER OR TO A TESTED ANIMAL. What the record rests on instead is the line recorded on it, Nadeya, which is a source's attribution and not a descent this register can walk; and a variant a source attributes to it, DBE-ALT, which this survey does not adopt; and a variant recorded on the animal itself, DBE-ALT.

How the variant was established

LINEAGE GENOTYPED, DBE-ALT. NOT TESTED. DBE-ALT IS FIXED BY A DNA GENOTYPE IN THIS CAT'S OFFSPRING. Yassminka Zojka carries DBE-ALT and a dominant allele must come from a parent. No other recorded parent of that cat shows a blue or odd eye, so this cat transmitted it. The deduction is certain and no sample of this animal exists.

Computed from the recorded parentage at every build. It sits above a traced descent and below a laboratory result, and it is withheld wherever a second variant sits in the ancestry.

More than one variant could be present in this cat

DBE-ALT and Nadeya, unidentified. MORE THAN ONE VARIANT COULD BE PRESENT IN THIS CAT: DBE-ALT, Nadeya, unidentified. It is not established that any of them is, and it is not established that two are. A dominant allele comes from a parent, and this cat's recorded ancestry carries an attribution of each.

A CAT HOLDING TWO IS A COMPOUND HETEROZYGOTE, which this survey records as the state associated with deaf and dead kittens, and NOTHING BUT A TEST DISTINGUISHES ONE FROM TWO.

Computed from the recorded parentage at every build, counting both the variants this survey adopts and the ones it records a source claiming and does not adopt. IT IS AN UPPER BOUND AND NOT A FINDING: it says what could be here, never what is.

What it would be carrying

DBE-ALT. Exactly one variant below this cat is fixed by a DNA genotype or by a first-degree lineage genotype, through Topaz, Misha Zojka, Yassminka Zojka, and the name travels back up the path the deduction came down. THIS NAMES THE VARIANT AND DOES NOT UPGRADE THE CARRIAGE: what changed is which test to order.

What the pedigree implies

ONE OF AN OBLIGATE PAIR. Paired with Quincy ARS BRITANNICA, for Yagger Zojka

This is computed from the recorded parentage each time this site is built and is not typed into the register. It is a deduction from the trait being dominant, not a statement by any source, and it is not the same thing as the record's own status field. Only a laboratory settles it for an individual. The full list is on latent lines.

What is flagged on this tree

1. WANESSA EMERALD FLOWER. TWO SOURCES DISAGREE ABOUT HER EYE AND THE DISAGREEMENT IS LOAD-BEARING. This register holds her at BSH ny 12 61, a blue eye. The PawPeds sheet for her daughter Paula Emerald Flower gives her as BSH ny 12 with no eye code at all. HER DAUGHTER IS CODED 69 AND HER GRANDDAUGHTER IS GENOTYPED DBE^ALT, so whether the eye is recorded on her decides whether the trait appears at Paula or comes from above her. NEITHER READING IS DISCARDED
2. WANESSA EMERALD FLOWER. Eye and coat, THE STRONGEST EXCLUSION THIS REGISTER CAN MAKE FROM A CODE. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes and its recorded coat carries NO WHITE SPOTTING CODE AT ALL, is not dominant white and is not colourpointed. NOTHING IN THE COAT CAN PALE AN IRIS. A dominant blue eye is present and it is not the KIT odd-eye case and not the white-cat case. Its registry has entered no dominant eye code on it. WHICH VARIANT IS NOT DEDUCIBLE FROM A COAT CODE and none is adopted: a genotype or a trace to a named founder would name it.
3. PAULA EMERALD FLOWER. Latency. STATED BY A SOURCE, NOT DEMONSTRATED BY A TEST. Latent is a claim that this cat carries a variant while showing no blue or odd eye, and here it rests on a breeder-compiled document rather than on a laboratory result. THREE CATS IN THIS REGISTER ARE LATENT ON A GENOTYPE: Belle Ayr Onyxx, DBE-ALT, and Robin and Rocky, both DBE-RE. This is not one of them

A flag is not an error. It marks a place where two sources say different things, or where an attribution cannot be made on the evidence held.

The code read out

British Shorthair; black golden; ticked tabby; dominant odd eyes, written in the 68 series

The description held

annotated LATENT DBE; code 69 is the latency code HER GRANDSON IS GENOTYPED. Topaz Zojka, out of her daughter Yassminka, is genotyped DBE^ALT and heterozygous. SHE IS ON THE NADEYA LINE AND IS RECORDED LATENT ON A 69 CODE, so if the variant did not enter through the other side of his pedigree it entered through her, and DBE^ALT would then sit inside the Nadeya line. THE VARIANT REACHED HIM DOWN ONE OF TWO ROUTES AND NOTHING HELD HERE SAYS WHICH. DBE^ALT is dominant and Topaz Zojka is heterozygous, so AT LEAST ONE OF HIS PARENTS CARRIES IT. HIS PARENTS ARE HALF-SIBLINGS: Sammy Zojka and Yassminka Zojka are both out of Quincy ARS BRITANNICA, who carries no eye code at all. EITHER THE VARIANT ENTERED THROUGH QUINCY, in which case he is a latent carrier of a named variant and it explains the blue eyes on both sides below him, OR IT ENTERED THROUGH YASSMINKA'S DAM PAULA EMERALD FLOWER, who is already recorded latent and is on the Nadeya line, IN WHICH CASE DBE^ALT SITS INSIDE THE NADEYA LINE, one of the largest lines in this register for which no variant has been identified. A SINGLE TEST ON QUINCY DISCRIMINATES BETWEEN THE TWO AND EITHER ANSWER IS A FINDING. NEITHER IS ASSUMED. S_TOPAZ_176 A CAT OF THE NADEYA LINE IS NOW GENOTYPED, AND THAT DOES NOT IDENTIFY THE NADEYA DETERMINANT. Yassminka Zojka is genotyped DBE^ALT and is attributed to the Nadeya line, which is the first laboratory result on any animal this register places on that line. SHE HAS TWO PARENTS AND ONLY ONE OF THEM IS ON IT: her sire Quincy ARS BRITANNICA is not, and her dam Paula Emerald Flower is. IF THE VARIANT CAME FROM QUINCY it entered from outside the line and the Nadeya determinant is still unidentified; IF IT CAME FROM PAULA then DBE^ALT is inside the Nadeya line. NOTHING HELD HERE CHOOSES BETWEEN THEM, and one DBE^ALT test on Paula Emerald Flower settles it outright. IT ALSO DOES NOT EXCLUDE A SECOND VARIANT: the laboratory offers a DBE-ALT product only, so DBE^CEL, DBE^RE, DBE^AGO, DBE^cDc and DBE^xHW were not tested in any of these cats, and a Nadeya determinant distinct from DBE^ALT would not have shown up. S_YASSMINKA_178 HER FOUR-GENERATION PAWPEDS SHEET SHOWS NO EYE CODE ANYWHERE ABOVE HER. Thirty ancestors of thirty possible, every cell filled, and NOT ONE CARRIES 61, 63, 68, 69 OR 60 while she is coded 69. EITHER THE VARIANT AROSE IN HER OR IT CAME DOWN THROUGH ANIMALS NO REGISTRY CODED, WHICH IS WHAT A LATENT CARRIER IS, and this register takes neither reading. THE REGISTER ALREADY CONTRADICTS THE SHEET ON ONE ANIMAL AND THAT IS THE BETTER EVIDENCE: PawPeds gives her dam Wanessa Emerald Flower as BSH ny 12 with no eye code, and this register holds Wanessa at BSH ny 12 61 from a different source. IF THE 61 IS RIGHT THEN THE EYE DOES COME FROM ABOVE PAULA and the absence on this sheet is a recording gap rather than a fact about the cats. HER OWN CODE IS GIVEN TWO WAYS AS WELL: PawPeds and this register have her at ny 25 69, odd eyes in the 68 series, and her cattery's post of 16 April 2025 writes her BRI ny 11 61, blue eyes in the mainstream series. The register keeps ny 25 69, which two sources give, and records the third. S_PAULA_179

Note

The code and the description do not use the same words for this coat. Both are recorded and neither is reconciled to the other.

Evidence grade

Lineage genotyped not tested. THE VARIANT IS FIXED BY A DNA GENOTYPE IN A PARENT OR AN OFFSPRING, and only one variant sits in the ancestry, so which variant this animal carries is settled without a sample of its own

In the register

• Parents: Lemurcat May, Wanessa Emerald Flower
• Offspring recorded in this register; a cat may have others: Yagger Zojka, Yassminka Zojka, Yoda Zojka, Yoker Zojka

This directory is a working aid compiled from published charts, registry documents and breeder statements. It is not a register and it has no standing of any kind. The grade attaches to the animal, not to the line: a cat whose ancestor was genotyped is line-traced, not genotyped.
