This book explores the intriguing phenomenon of non-transmissible variations in the context of genetic studies of rabbits and rats. The author, who has conducted extensive research in the field, presents fascinating observations on a tri-color variation in rats, where a gray-hooded individual exhibited a unique mosaic pattern of yellow and white mottling. Despite the initial hope of establishing a new color variety, breeding experiments with this individual revealed that the variation was not heritable and did not conform to Mendelian patterns. The author delves into the implications of this finding, examining the nature and origin of such non-transmissible variations and their significance in understanding the broader mechanisms of genetic inheritance. Through rigorous experimentation and meticulous analysis, this book sheds light on the complexities of genetic phenomena and the challenges faced in unraveling the mysteries of biological diversity.
