We know that there are 4 alleles that code for skin color in Jaguar Sharks: red, blue, yellow, and white
These are the relationships among them:
The red allele is completely dominant to the blue and yellow allele, but incompletely dominant to the white allele.
The blue allele is completely dominant to white allele.
The yellow allele and the blue allele are codominant.
The yellow allele is incompletely dominant to the white allele.
