Maine Coon · both eyes blue, no cause established · No variant and no line attributed

Genealogy trace, one printable page carrying the proposed code

Under the variant field this directory proposes, this cat would read DBE 161p. A carrier of a variant with no published allele, on no named line. This is the group bare 161 exists for. 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

What is flagged on this tree

1. Tlc Touch of Fantasy. Ancestry. She reaches the love Hulen and Capecoon population without passing through a dominant white cat. Love Hulen's Djanko, Love Hulen's Rositta, Capecoon Dschafar, Walmet Stroker of Capecoon, Capecoon Cassidy of Ledgewood and Baumkatz Perseus of Pawcatuck all stand in her four recorded generations, and no w appears on any of the thirty. The pedigree wanted list sets that ancestry aside as uninformative because its blue eyes run through white generations. That reasoning does not reach this cat
2. Tlc Touch of Fantasy. 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.

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.

EMS code

MCO n 61

The code read out

Maine Coon; black; blue eyes

The description held

coded 61 on the PawPeds Maine Coon 61 listing and carries no white of any kind. The EMS code holds no w, no 01, 02, 03 or 09 white spotting and no 33 colourpoint, and PawPeds codes a pointed eye separately as 67. On this animal a blue or odd eye is therefore not attributable to dominant white, to white spotting or to the pointed gene. No genotype, pedigree or variant is attached to this record

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.

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.
