Persian cat: Chocolate and lilac

Chocolate or lilac Persians?

Can it be possible? I, as owner, breeding Persians and exotic, I posed a problem recently. For, of course, there is to see if the genetic viewpoint. These colors are included in the rule, not the description, but ... Where? For all foreign accounts, have these animals, but for whatever reason, are most often found in the pedigrees British cats as experimental partners to lead the new color in the race, but not as the stars of the exhibition. He had spent much time answer the question "What is the real Lilac and chocolate in the Persian group?"

The paradox is apparent in both large enough number of Chocolate and Lilac points and virtual absence of masks individuals with similar colors. Probably how to play your role in it. After all, the point of view genetic lilac-point is more difficult to receive, for example, of solid chocolate (solid-monochromatic, "signature" of color). Now Thank you to the fashion jokes are forced to literally selectionist chocolate and lilac solid companies, or CRC (the gene for spot color) or working with color lines simpliciter, which coupling solid (besides, it is desirable for a higher rate) with the mixture of colors and more parents of color. These couplings are made for a long time, but the deliberate selection has recently started in this direction.

Only the work of several breeding nurseries today in this sense:

It is JUKI Poland. It is renowned nursery world. But once they have Chocolate and Lilac not as objects of selection, but as a side effect of points of color reproduction "by modern type.

It Smaragd in Estonia, which specializes in Persian cats and exotic lilac used in cats JUKI work and nurseries in Finland.

Lilac type cat and strong upper reaches of victories FIFE system. Pedigree Nursery program is varied and includes copulation with bulls chocolate.

It is Tair Voting in Ukraine, also using the blood of JUKI, but specialized in reverse, as in chocolate and tabby. You can see first Oldest This nursery kittens Kharkov to Moscow.

This club (FIFE) Irbis in Krasnodar, work in the colors of blood and societies chocolate. Today, the scarcity of a standard incubator, a purple cat. Now you can see the first prosterity Lila quality entertainment.

The nursery Kelisa in Sochi is the nursery of Chocolate Persians. Prosterity the same type program designed by pedigree. The nursery plans Exot reception Lila and perfection of nature.

Several animals appeared chocolate brown in Russia and Ukraine, but you can not see the result of a baby yet. Or these cats still too young, or the program is not intended to genealogy, giving more soon. Chocolate blood Kharkov Exot life in St. Petersburg (The owner is Orlova S.), Neva town also boasts chocolate-Point, Poland, more exotic Kharkov is purchased by nursery (Moscow) Dimarsh.

There are animals of modern type of Perm and Voronezh, but because of its remoteness from the capital or inaction owners have information about them.

The nursery and Fred Alexander (Moscow) has three Persian cats chocolate (different blood lines), Exot chocolate, chocolate cream cat, and many cats carry the gene for chocolate. The nursery plans the reception of chocolate and lilac bicolor cats. The care program common pedigree Kelisa (Sochi).

Several fans in Moscow began breeding chocolate and lilac Persians, but probably not how to buy bulls or interesting subject decided to go all the way to get to be the type of animals that initially received chocolate color towards miscegenation.

Relevance is necessary to understand the genetics of these colors to know the rules Game and receipt of lilac and chocolate.

Black Hair color also with the color red is considered fundamental. melanin pigments in black color - eumelanin, red - pheomelanin. All other colors (except white) are only derived from these two. Black Hair color is formed under the influence of gene B - black, chromogenic complete set. The pigment also assigned to the hair shaft from root to tip. Gene B - black, black is insistent, and behind the row of recessive genes can Hiden:

Gene brightener D (Delutor - diluent for example), which gives the possibility to receive the Lord kittens in blue. This gene is responsible for the distribution of pigment best location along the hair shaft, making hair more light tone;

B Gene chocolate (special location of pigment along the hair shaft), giving the opportunity to receive the kittens chocolate colored animals giving and, in combination with genes from bleaching D, lilac. Must attention to the fact that the b gene is recessive. That, to receive chocolate kittens Brown, both parents must be carriers of this gene, and the sowing of lilac both parents Must Have genes at the same time D and B;

Siamese color gene is interesting because the occasion for posterity with Siamese brands, including blue, chocolate and lilac colors (in the presence of genes of clarity color and chocolate together.)

The presence of genes can be defined as the study of genealogy bull or practice choice of partners with known genetic. But to get the color close to the ideal, it is necessary to maintain the rule - a pair like them. The main requirement for the quality of lilac and chocolate is soft, warm tone. These colors go well together, but as potential partners that you can choose cats red, cream colors, lilac and chocolate to give their children the pink hair and eye color bright. To Tabby Lilac and chocolate can be a gold as Tabby recommended potential partners or type modifications.

An unusual feature of the current situation in the Persian breeding chocolate is that the task get rid of the Siamese gene became the target of selection. In the first phase of work is the address of this gene in the state recessive. In the future, many copulations Chocolate and Lilac "inside" they will clarify the color gene of the population.

It seems there is nothing easier by Lila-Point with the red cat, then mix each litter. But the kind of question is most strongly in the Persian Gulf than in other races. Therefore, it is less cumbersome way - by taking a step forward, two steps have to be back. What do we do? Very often, black animals, especially in extreme races are the vectors of the strong, modern type, so they are used as amendments in breeding animals of different colors, such as points, Hood, chinchillas and even bicolored. Therefore it is necessary to attract cats exactly the same (or tortoise shell, the bulls were black, high class) for the program of chocolate.

Extract from standard colors Persian WCF (1995 edition)
