Germinal reversion of the merle allele in Australian shepherd dogs.

D P Sponenberg.   

Abstract

A homozygous merle Australian shepherd bitch produced two nonmerle offspring and 64 that carried the merle allele. The two nonmerle offspring produced no merles when bred to nonmerles, indicating that the germinal reversion to nonmerle was stable. This occurrence is further evidence that the merle allele is due to a transposable DNA element.
