In my replies I was attempting to down play the use of "wives tales" types of explanations about dogs from Bluetick lines showing up liver colored. This post wanted to know-"What was going on with that?" A basic understanding of how color is expressed in the phenotype and acquired through the genotype will reveal why this phenomenon occurs in our hounds. I have great respect for Mr. Ormiston and his work for our breed and his efforts to educate and enlighten others about our hounds. In my conversations with him, as well as Elbert Vaughn, Ed Meeks, Joe B Redden, Delma Smith, E K Malcom, Eddie Ross, Warren Haslouer, Dave Dean, Ed Mead and this vast collection of books and magazines dating back to the turn of the century (The 19th to the 20th)while gathering a hundred year history of our dogs and the men who made all this possible. It is based on that research that I stated my findings in the previous post. I was not trying to upset anyone. I wish every one of you the very best with your dogs and feel that we benefit collectively from the success of others. DNA is our most useful tool in determining the lineage of our hounds. Good luck!
