When did the Parti come to view? I am very sceptical as to "some" of these breeders dogs being legitamate Yorkshire Terriers, just on LOOKS alone.
I have had pups born with white on their chest. I would never sale these puppies as Parti carriers but I see this all the time. I also see people selling dogs with a Golden or Chocolate gene. If the Gene is present in the dog, DNA can authinticate it correct?

Another question...If AKC is so sure of the Parti, why are they not a separtate catagory as are other dogs of the same breed but different color?
Is it not possible for a vet to take a blood sample and send it to a lab for DNA and Breed analysis?
As to the first part of your post. There are most definitely some fakes out there. that is why it is important to research the breeder.

As to the second part. It is not up to the AKC to make a separate category for the other colors. That is up to they YTCA, and the YTCA denies their existance.. Even with letters from old time show breeders stating that they had white puppies. YTCA still maintains that they don't exist.
