Kohaku Bloodline Trivia....

[aquitori]

If you guys have Japanese Koi Books this will be easy to answer...This question is in regards to Kohaku bloodline. A Tomoin female was crossed with a Monjiro male to get this famous bloodline that starts with a "Y".....

[Brian]

Trivia: Of the pair listed, which is the bloodline and which is the keito? Did the result produce a new bloodline or simply a keito?

[greg]

Ok,

What is a Kieto? Never heard this before so don't understand the question.

Thanks,

[jbolding]

Okay now I am stumped. I thought a Keito was a bloodline.

[keokoi]

Keito means trait. Brian can give you a more accurate definition. Keito and bloodline are different. There are no true bloodlines for Showa and Shiro Utsuri but there are keito for those respective varieties.

Yagozen is correct...

Trivia: Of the pair listed, which is the bloodline and which is the keito? Did the result produce a new bloodline or simply a keito?

Generally when a farm creates a new keito they name it after their farm..i.e. Dainichi...Farms will only do this after they feel the koi they produce is stable in bloodline and consist in production.

Keito is basically the same thing as bloodline it's just how you use the term. Keito is how they trace back offspring to the parents...
