Quote:I think it's equally damaging to tell someone new that they can never pull out a TR using anything but a dominant trait.
Remember, in this discussion, you only have ONE cat with the new True
Recessive, so you have no choice: ALL choices are dominant to your goal.
Quote: I, however, get there quicker breeding more recessive traits to the TR.
To be clear: You mean you like more
recessive traits which are dominant to the True
Recessive since there are NO traits more
recessive than the current True
Recessive.
When designing a breeding program there are only three choices:
* More
recessive
* Equal to
* More dominant
How much more
recessive or more dominant does NOT matter. Anything which first the criteria will work. All which fit the criteria work equally well.
Much of the discussion has been about approaches which have various other effects and how your choices help you wend your way through them.
