A · Agouti · ASIP
Modern ASIP haplotypes. Legacy ay/at results need laboratory interpretation.

DNA Test Guide
Start with a laboratory report
Ask your veterinarian or genetics laboratory for a breed-appropriate coat-color panel. Enter the two reported alleles separately; do not infer confirmed DNA from a photo.
B · Brown · TYRP1
b represents a laboratory-confirmed brown allele; multiple brown variants exist.
D · Dilution · MLPH
d represents a laboratory-confirmed dilution allele; use a breed-appropriate panel.
E · Extension · MC1R
Core mask/recessive-red model. Grizzle, domino and other variants require specialist interpretation.
K · Dominant black · CBD103
KB masks ASIP patterns; brindle acts on red areas.
M · Merle · PMEL
Report exact laboratory allele classification. Length and mosaicism affect expression and risk; no automatic health clearance.
S · White spotting · MITF
Inheritance is calculable; white coverage is not. Breed and modifiers affect expression.
Legacy ASIP results, compound brown/dilution variants, merle mosaicism, grizzle/domino and white modifiers need specialist review. This core calculator does not assess all genetic health risks.
