Fast Facts About California(n) Guinea Pigs

Everything you need to know about this beautiful Cali markings and unique gene

Cali is Dominant with the K Gene
You only need one copy of the K gene for Californian markings to appear.
K = Californian
k = Non-Californian

The Cali gene Cannot be carried.
If the guinea pig does not show Californian markings, it does not have the gene. In other words: No visible Cali markings = no K gene.

Although points or markings of Cali guinea pig are a DOMINANT gene and also CANNOT BE CARRIED, Cali x Cali won’t give you a guarenteed of 100% cali pup(s). Unless 1 or both cali parents have 2 cali genes (Homozygous). If both Heterozygous (1 cali gene), non-cali (self) pup(s) is fairly possible.

The results of Punnett square calculations for various pairing conditions are shown below. It is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment.

Using Punnett Square Calculator
K - Dominant cali gene
k - Non cali gene
KK - Homozygous (heavily marked or overmarked Cali - often called “Siam”)
Kk - Heterozygous

•Condition 1: Both Parents are Homozygous
Pairing: KK x KK (Cali x Cali)
Outcome: 100% Cali pups
Note: 100% Homozygous

•Condition 2: One parent is Homozygous & other parent is Heterozygous
Pairing: KK x Kk (Cali x Cali)
Outcome: 100% Cali pups
Note: 50% Homozygous; 50% Heterozygous

•Condition 3: Both Parents are Heterozygous
Pairing: Kk x Kk (Cali x Cali)
Outcome: 75% Cali pups; 25% non cali
Note: 50% Heterozygous; 25% Homozygous; 25% non cali

•Condition 4: One parent is Heterozygous & other parent is non cali
Pairing: Kk x kk (Cali x Non-Cali)
Outcome: 50% Cali; 50% non cali
Note: 50% Heterozygous; 50% non cali

Cali markings are visible on the red color series (white, cream, buff, gold, red etc) and can also be seen on Agouti, Argente, Marked varieties (Tan, Lux, Otter, Silver Fox etc)

Cali Markings Are Hidden on the Black Color Series - Black, Chocolate, Lilac, Beige etc.

Cali Markings Can Be Masked By
•White Spotting (WS) hair
•Partial Extension (Tortoiseshell/Brindle gene)
These can hide or interfere with the appearance of the markings.

Cali color markings are determined by the Pigmentation, Eyes color and the Blue Dilution gene (d)

USAPANG EYES COLOR

Ang color ng isang mata ayon sa standard ay nadedetermine sa color ng Pupil at hindi sa Iris (check the picture sa link). Ayun din sa standard may 3 options na color in reference sa Pupil at hindi sa Iris (kahit ang Iris ay may color pigment) - dark eyed, pink eyed at ruby cast.

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1B9jACzPm6/

Technically, ang ruby cast ay typically result ng lower levels ng pigment sa Iris (terms na ginagamit natin o ginamit mo ay "lighter than ruby cast") at ito ay makikita sa combination ng Silver gene (genetic code - cr) at Himalayan gene (genetic code - ch) o crch genes combination sa C locus o color dilution genes. Possible din na ang ruby cast ay due to pg gene o tinatawag din ng iba ng ruby-cast gene.

Tandaan na ang ruby cast color ay resulta ng mga sumusunod na genes:
1. Cr (ruby eyed dilution) o silver gene na madalas makikita sa Silver Agouti at DEW.

2. pg gene o tinatawag na partial pink eye (or grey) dilution gene. Ang pg gene dilutes black color by about 50% at nagreresulta ito ng distinctly ruby cast sa mata.

Note: 2 copies ng cr gene produced distinct ruby cast in the eye. Same result sa 2 copies ng pg gene. 1 copy of cr gene in combination with other gene like for example crch ay maaring magresulta ng slight changes ng pupil color at mauwi sa light ruy cast eye. In the case of 1 copy of pg gene in combination with other gene in P locus, example Ppg and ppg genes combination, ay magreresulta ng small o minimal changes (most of the time unnoticeable or invisible) in pupil color dahil ang P gene (normal eye gene o black color) at p gene (pink eye dilution gene) ay madodominate ang pg gene.
