MPreg Heredity

Note: This post include fictional characters of a well-known series, Katekyo Hitman Reborn! It contains fan theory, thus it must not be taken too seriously.

So, I was reading my friend Tori's old journal entries and found a link where her Gokudera discusses about how the genotypes of the attribute of flames get inherited, specifically about how my D18's children (Kei and Kaede) inherited their parents' flame. This is what he comes up with:

............Xs............ Y
-------------------------------
Xc ...... ..XcXs..........XcY
--------------------------------
Xc .........XcXs..........XcY

The original is here.

The father (Dino) is Xs Y, while the mother (Kyouya) is Xc Xc. Hence, using the punnett square, it should be something like that. The ratio supposed to be:

XcXs: female Sky (Kei)
XcY: male Cloud (Kaede)

However, this theory is slightly wrong, because Kyouya is NOT a female, although he is the one who gave birth to both children. His chromosome genotypes are supposed to be symbolized with Xc Y. And, believe it or don't, even if we are using this genotype, we can still get the desired result.

This is what I came up with:

............Xs............ Y
-------------------------------
Xc ........XcXs..........XcY
--------------------------------
Y  .........XsY.......... YY

With this, we can still get a female Sky (Xc Xs) and a male Cloud (Xc Y). In addition, it is possible for Dino and Kyouya to get a son with the flame of Sky (Xs Y), thus Kazumichi (one of Yami Dragoness of Dark's OC and also D18's son) existence is legal.

We shall ignore the YY one because I'm not sure whether to label that as a lethal (meaning a child born with that chromosome is impossible / die in the mother's womb) or a flameless.

The conclusion? Xs allele is dominant while Xc is recessive.

Now, doesn't it makes you thinking which ones is the most dominant or the most recessive among the seven flames of Sky?

Let's pick another example, this time to see which one is more dominant between Mist and Cloud. I shall borrow Luise Meyrink's OCs, Rokudou Ren and Renna. The father is Mukuro (Xm Y) and the mother is Kyouya (Xc Y). Using the same method, we will get something like this:

............Xm............ Y
-------------------------------
Xc .........XcXm..........XcY
--------------------------------
Y ..........XmY........... YY

From that, we get XcXm (female Cloud = Renna), XmY (male Mist = Renna), XcY (male Cloud), and YY (lethal / flameless). In conclusion, Xc is more dominant than Xm.

So far, I am only able to find out the most dominant is s (the allele of Sky flames) after trying Sawada Nana (Yami Dragoness of Dark's OC, a child of R27) and the most recessive is m (the allele of Mist flames) after trying Hibari Kyouko (runesque's OC, a child of 1896). There's a possibility that Storm flame is more dominant than Rain too.

But I could be wrong.

This is the end of my simple, quick research. Corrections and criticisms are appreciated.
