title: Coat colour inheritance in dogs: determination of genotype from phenotypic observations.
abstract: The determination of partial genotype, B/b and D/d, for coat colour in dogs, from phenotypic observations, is discussed. It is shown that the probability of a given genotype can be reliably determined where multiple observations on the mating of a given dog are available.
