(A) Color phenotypes of the pampas cat (L. colocolo), Geoffroy’s cat (L. geoffroyi), and kodkod (L. guigna). Tabby markings in the non-melanistic (NM) forms shown here are obscured in the melanistic (M) forms. (B) Geographic distribution (modified from [7]); red circles represent the approximate origin of samples as described in the text. Right upper panel indicates phylogenetic relationships and estimated divergence times based on [4] (C, D) Location of missense variants in ASIP (kodkod, pampas cat) and MC1R (Geoffroy’s cat). (C) The kodkod and pampas cat variants are predicted to disrupt the three dimensional structure of a disulfide-stabilized loop in ASIP that is critical for MC1R binding [30]. (D) The Geoffroy’s cat melanism allele carries three missense variants in MC1R; C125R is likely to be causative as described in the text.
