Yellow Miyuki

黄幹之

Medaka strainEvidence by claimIndependent review ongoing

A 2014 historical catalog credits independent Yellow Miyuki discoveries to JOURAKUAN and Tsutomu Moriguchi in different prefectures.

Parent lines not documented. No pedigree or genetic connection can be drawn. Not a confirmed genotype or parent-fish identification.

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.

Overview

The historical record explicitly lists two creators for near-contemporaneous Yellow Miyuki expressions, rather than a single claimed inventor or partnership. Documented developer/creator role: JOURAKUAN and Tsutomu Moriguchi — independent origins.

Evidence labels refer to documentary strength. They do not assert independently tested genetics.

Known research gaps

  • Do not assert the two independently produced lines share the same recent named genetic parent pair.
  • Yellow Miyuki is a documented phenotype group; Moriguchi's Akari has its own article and must not be counted as a newly invented duplicate here.
  • DNA-confirmed ancestry, Mendelian segregation, complete parent-pair registers and strain-specific water requirements are not established.
  • Images from magazine, breeder sites and shop listings are not republished without verified reuse permission.
