Picture gene & lineage tree
Visual pedigree of breeder-reported inputs, where available. Dashed arrows represent documentary claims or selection history, not DNA-tested genes.
This strain's direct parent lines are not established by the reviewed sources. No breeding cross, genotype or inheritance pattern is implied. Source: Sources remain under review; ancestry connections will appear only with cited evidence.

Lineage review · Batch 015: Original parental pair has not been established from cited material; the illustrated pedigree intentionally retains an unconnected ancestry gap. Specialist source ↗
Overview
The specialist source credits Saito and lists Japan Medaka Association recognition as variety number 26. Creator identity and lineage are limited to this cited specialist account.
Claim-by-claim evidence
| Research finding | Evidence class | Direct references |
|---|---|---|
| The specialist identifies Shiro Saito / 齋藤士郎 (romanization provisional) in the maker field; creation-year statement: 2016. | Historically documented specialist attribution, breeder confirmation pending | f ↗ |
| Golden body and varied colors of reflective lame | Published visible-characteristic description, not a DNA assay | f ↗ |
| The specialist source credits Saito and lists Japan Medaka Association recognition as variety number 26 | Source historical-selection account, independently unchecked crossing log | f ↗ |
| Association recognition is not laboratory verification of a genetic pedigree | Identity/date/genetics limitation preserved rather than inferred | f ↗ |
Evidence labels refer to documentary strength. They do not assert independently tested genetics.
Known research gaps
- No complete original breeder parent-fish ledger or independent molecular genotype assay has been reviewed.
- The listed creator/year do not authenticate present-day retail stock or independently establish first commercial sale.
- Photographs on the specialist site are not licensed for reproduction and have not been copied.
