Stanford Medicine researchers discover mechanisms of sex-linked genetic mutation giving rise to ginger felines.

The existence of orange cats dates back to at least the 12th century, but scientists have only had theories that a sex-linked ...

Researchers identified an unusual genetic mutation in orange domestic cats that has not been found in any other animal, ...

Vicente Marin told Newsweek: "I think switching from daylight saving time is what made him start tapping. He noticed that his ...

Scientists have finally narrowed down on a long theorised elusive genetic mutation that makes orange cats so unique, unlike any other mammal. While the orange fur colour can be seen across mammals ...

Researchers have discovered how orange cats got their coats — and why so many of them are male. The coat color comes from a genetic mutation on the X chromosome of orange, calico and tortoiseshell ...

to name just a few. Unlike any other “ginger” mammals, orange cats’ coloration owes to a sex-linked gene, which is why 80% of orange felines are fellas. The unique sex-linked orange genetic ...
