Tabby cat or "hypermelanistic" allele, "a", does not. Solid-color (black or blue) cats have the "aa" combination, hiding the tabby pattern, although sometimes a suggestion of the underlying pattern can be seen (called "ghost striping") This pattern is mostly seen in young cats that still have the baby coat. The right pattern (Classic, Mackerel, or Spotted) will reveal itself then, because that is independent of whether it is tabby or solid. However, the agouti gene only controls the production of black pigment, so a cat with an "O" allele for orange color will still have the tabby pattern. As a result, both
Mackerel "Scomber japonicus", are the most intensively fished scombroid mackerel. As can be seen from the graph on the right, they account for about half the total capture production of scombroid mackerels. As a species they are easily confused with Atlantic mackerel. Chub mackerel migrate long distances in oceans and across the Mediterranean. They can be caught with drift nets and suitable trawls, but are most usually caught with surround nets at night by attracting them with lampara lamps. The remaining catch of scombroid mackerels is divided equally between the Atlantic mackerel and all other scombroid mackerels. Just two species account
