Basic Color Genetics: Lilac and Lilac Tort

 

This post compares Lilac and Lilac Tort.   

Lilac color genes are: aabbC-ddE-
Non-agouti, brown/chocolate family, full color, dilute, extended color.

Lilac tort color genes are: aabbC-ddee
Non-agouti, brown/chocolate family, full color, dilute, non-extension.

Comparing the two:
Lilac:        aabbC-ddE-
Lilac tort: aabbC-ddee

The difference is the extension gene.  If the color is extended to the entire body, lilac.  If not extended, lilac tort.   Both are dilute thus both have gray eyes.
