What is Understanding Calico Cat Genetics about?

This document explains why female calico cats have orange and black fur. It explains that the gene that controls fur color in cats is sex-linked on the X chromosome. Females (XX) inherit one copy of the gene from each parent, while males (XY) inherit the gene only from their mother. This means that females with genotype XOXo will have two-colored fur, while males will be one solid color.
