Genealogy trace, one printable page carrying the proposed code

Under the variant field this directory proposes, this cat would read DBE clear. Tested negative on the panel recorded, with no unidentified line above. 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, Schneesternchen, which is a source's attribution and not a descent this register can walk.

What the pedigree implies

On the path above an obligate pair. Above Schneesternchen's Laska

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. Schneesternchen's Tom. Panel. The only wild-type grade in this group that names its panel, and the panel was three variants of the eight now known. He stands two generations above Schneesternchen's Laska, a finding 21 cat coded 63 with no white of any kind
2. Schneesternchen's Tom. Eye and coat, a determination and not a query. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes, carries a bicolour or locket white code, is not dominant white and is not colourpointed. The classic white spotting gene covers an eye where the white happens to fall, which gives an odd eye and not two blue ones, so the coat does not account for this and a dominant blue eye is present in the line. It is not the KIT odd-eye 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 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.

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.
