Determination of the candidate gene responsible for BEL (Blue Eye Leucistic) expression in the ball python (Python regius).

Brazilian journal of biology = Revista brasleira de biologia - 1 Jan 2026

Kumsiri R, Kanchanaphum P

Abstract excerpt

The ball python, scientifically known as Python regius, is a popular exotic pet due to its beautiful colors and patterns. One of the most famous characteristics of the ball python is the white coloration seen in the blue-eyed leucistic (BEL) variant. This study indicates that the endothelin receptor type B (EDNRB) gene is a candidate gene responsible for the white color and blue eyes characteristic of the BEL....
