title: Synergistic action of white spotting genes in the Syrian hamster (Rodentia, Cricetidae).
abstract: The phenotypic interaction of three mutant genes Ba, Ds and Wh are quantitatively analysed for proportion of white areas in the coat. Each of the genes individually induces a characteristic amount of white spotting which is synergistically enhanced in combination. So much so, that the genotypes Ba+Ds+Wh+ has an almost or completely white coat.
