Pedigree of a lavender allele family. Segregation of the putative 103T lavender allele in crosses between two homozygous lavender sires, A) 5355 and B) 5394, and four heterozygous dams, A) 5368, 5372 and B) 5363, 5385, is consistent with the lavender phenotype. Males are denoted by squares, and females by circles. Lavender (LAV*L) and wild-type (LAV*N) haplotypes are indicated as solid black and solid white symbols, respectively.
