Spread
The spread gene is epistatic to the wing pattern gene.
In other words; the spread gene masks the wing pattern gene. Wing pattern does not show.
4
Spread alleles
The spread allele is dominant (S) to the no spread allele (s).
The spread allele masks the wing pattern by spreading the color of the bird hiding the wing pattern. (see picture on the right)

Recessive red
This gene is a completely different gene and not a part of the color gene (Blue, Brown, & Ash-red)
Top picture: Color gene
Bottom picture: Recessive red gene
22
Recessive red
The Not recessive red allele is dominant (N) to Recessive red allele is recessive (n)
If a bird has 2 recessive red alleles the bird will look red. A darker red than a bird with the ash-red color phenotype. (see picture on the right)
23
Recessive red is epistatic to...
Color, spread, and wing pattern.
*remember that spread is epistatic to pattern
24
25
When a bird has a recessive red phenotype it will mask the bird's color, spread, and wing pattern.
See the picture on the right to see how it affects the way a pigeon looks.
*Not recessive red (although it is the dominant allele) does not create any color which means no visible effect on the pigeon's appearance.
