Inheritance of trunk striping in the Sumatran tiger barb, Barbus tetrazona.

Abstract excerpt

The Sumatran tiger barb, Barbus tetrazona, exhibits three truck (pelvic) striping phenotypes: complete, incomplete, and half banded. Segregation patterns observed in the progeny from 12 different matings indicate that the inheritance of these phenotypes is controlled by two autosomal gene loci acting additively, with complete dominance at each locus.
