# Agouti Based Coats + DFP1

<p class="callout info">*How Sooty and Dense Pheomelanin influence shade and expression of DFP1 on Bay and Brown Based Coats.*</p>

##### **Bay Dun Brindle (E/e, A/A, D/-, DFP1/DFP1)**

Looking at the chart below, as we add darkening genes like Sooty and Dense Pheomelanin, the horses coat becomes darker and the Dun Factor markings become more expressed. However, if it becomes too dark, the Dun Factor begins to get lost due to the Dappling caused by having 3 or more Darkening Genes.

</details>##### **Bay Dun Brindle with Sooty Plus (S+)**

Sooty Plus (S+) shifts around pigment to give a dappled look. This pigment shift, while darkening the horse, can distort the appearance of Dun Factor.

</details>##### **Bay Dun Brindle with Dilution Genes**

Diluting genes change the intensity of pigment on a horse. This weakens the expression of Dun Factor, and in some cases it can be invisible.
