[Jacob-list] Gender Linked Horns, Scurs, & Genetic Letter for Lilac

I believe that the "genetic letter" for "regular lilac" (as lilac is used
for any non-black phase) should be "d," standing for dilute. This would be
consistent with it's usage in other mammals with the same apparent
expression (not color expression, but melanin distribution expression). "D" would
indicate the normal, dominant, non-dilute allele and "d" would indicate
the recessive, dilute allele.
