Medaka breeder-documented selection lineEvidence by claimIndependent review ongoing

A Savanna composite selection program beginning with Fromage × White Diamond RLF and later involving Artemis and Snow White RLF.

Picture gene & lineage tree

Visual pedigree of breeder-reported inputs, where available. Dashed arrows represent documentary claims or selection history, not DNA-tested genes.

Horizontal branching Medaka lineage. American name: White Tiger (Savanna line); Japanese romaji: not verified; Japanese characters: ホワイトタイガー.

Overview

The catalog describes balancing dark patches associated with Artemis and lighter body color associated with White Diamond lines. The catalog is a first-party account, not independent genetic confirmation.

Detailed original breeder-source chart

Breeder-reported lineage and selection

The dashed arrows map reported inputs, not independently authenticated parent pairs. Multi-stage inputs are shown together for readability; this is not a verified single-generation mating plan.

Visual Medaka lineage for White Tiger. Dashed connectors show breeder-reported input or selection history; they do not prove actual parent pairs, alleles, or dominance.REPORTED INPUT / STAGE 1Fromage × White Diamond RLF baseREPORTED INPUT / STAGE 2Artemis, later inputREPORTED INPUT / STAGE 3Snow White RLF, later inputFOCAL STRAINWhite Tiger
Dashed connectors show breeder-reported input or selection history; they do not prove actual parent pairs, alleles, or dominance. Parent fish IDs are not independently established.

Source: Savanna Vol.1, printed p.7. Dashed means breeder-reported; the original source alone does not prove inherited traits.

Known research gaps

  • No verified year, parent sex, or exact multigeneration cross sequence is attached.
  • Do not conflate this line with Sesshu's reported 'White Tiger' alias or other sellers' unrelated White Tiger names.
  • No independent DNA-verified inheritance, controlled water-parameter optimum, graded phenotype guarantee or offspring ratio is established.
  • Third-party catalog photos are not licensed for republication in this entry.
