 I have always seen tangerine in throat.?

Theoretically possible could be without, but have never seen such an animal.

Is that true for t factor in beards?  So that a white-bearded white
could be full tangerine factor?  Or does the beard always have some red
in the throat?

&lt;Having genes doesn't mean that trait is shown. There may be an upstream
blockage of pigment.&gt;

In very cool weather, I've seen LACED COTTON open with pale blue plic
markings.  Others have seen the same. They quickly faded to white.  So
it's actually plic phenotype.

&lt;For another example, Laced Cotton.? this is a plicata genotype, but a
white phenotype.&gt;
