Für mich wäre das Zeug Grund genug, nach Finnland zu ziehen. (Hat mein Mann mir mitgebracht. Sind wahrscheinlich nicht die besten, aber hier in Frankreich kann ich von sowas nur träumen.) #Salmiak #Lakritz

Salmiak cats: New genetic coat pattern linked to KIT gene

Finnish researchers linked a 95 kb deletion downstream of KIT to the “salmiak” coat pattern, noting all five known cats were homozygous in a study of 183 domestic cats. getnews.me/salmiak-cats-new-genetic... #salmiak #kitgene

Genetic Mutation Salmiak Gives Cats a 'Salty Liquorice' Coat Colour See the newest cat coat pattern salmiak or “salty liquorice,” discovered by Wisdom Panel™ geneticist Heidi Anderson, PhD. Read on to learn more about this beautiful and unique pattern.

And now for something a little more interesting...a new #cat coat! It's called the #salmiak or salty licorice coat and it's GORGEOUS. The genetic mutation that causes this coat is 'interesting' since it's a deletion of part of the cat's genetic code for coloration.

«Réglisse salée», la nouvelle couleur de chat qui fascine la science Une équipe de recherche en génétique a sué sang et eau pour parvenir à comprendre comment cette nouvelle teinte a pu faire son trou.

La couleur « réglisse salée », rare robe de chat mêlant noir, blanc et gris, vient d’être expliquée génétiquement : une mutation récessive causée par un trou dans l’ADN. #Chats #Génétique #Salmiak

Genetic mutation gives cats a 'salty liquorice' coat colour Researchers have discovered the gene variant responsible for a distinctive colour pattern seen in cats in Finland, named salmiak after a variety of liquorice

"People first noticed the unusual fur patterns ... in 2007.
...
When DNA testing on the cats turned out to be negative for all the gene variants known to affect white colouring ... the researchers decided to dig deeper."

New 'Salty Licorice' Cat Coat Pattern Linked to Genetic Mutation, Study Finds A group of scientists at the University of Helsinki in Finland discovered a genetic mutation that causes a distinct "salty licorice" coloring in domestic cats

A new #cat color called Salmiak ("Salty Liquorice") was discovered in #Finland. Here's a video (not from the article) about it: youtu.be/MCBULvbsPCY?...

Wer hat Tips für gute Lakritze?
Bitte Mit Bezugsquellen. Bei uns gibt es große Liebhaber und ich wollte für die zu Ostern gern das schwarze Zeug besorgen. #Lakritz #Salmiak #vegan

For no reason whatsoever, I decided to try a Nordic licorice treat called salmiak rondos. I went all-in on a 1kg bag of them. Not bad. I don't find the saltiness off putting, but I want a bigger licorice punch. Anybody got recommendations? #salmiak

A New Cat Color Is Defying Genetic Expectations From roots to tips, this fur tells a tale of evolutionary wonder.
