Both have additional information on the allele. However, another resource you could utilize is a breeder since the topic is somewhat hard to find info on without going to going and getting a book on breed genetics.

I apologize for the (possible) double post.
Thank you Taryn.
The YTCA is the FIRST Yorkie website I ever visited. Through it I have found two reputable breeders that have been helping me through the "difficult" things, like OMG is THIS what they mean by COLOR BREAK? And Pixie WON'T EAT, what do I DO???!!! (this is the first week she was brought home, when I had to coax her to eat every bite, save for the gerber chicken she had to be hand fed.)
Thanks to their kindness, Pixie is a food hog, and I don't panic over every little thing. I have made them laugh at the noobness of some of my questions and impressed them with my knowledge in other areas. In fact, they let me know of a Yorkie Specialty in my area that I will be attended to learn even more about these wonderful dogs first hand. (This means I get to drool over them in real life, not just over pictures on the computer, lol).

Thank you again, Pinehaven.
A few of my favorite genetic sites are
Canine Coat Color Inheritance and Appearance - coat colors and coat color inheritance in dogs.
B/b, E/e, and Beyond
http://bowlingsite.mcf.com/Genetics/Genetics.html

As these are general dog or other breed specific, I really wanted to speak to someone in the Yorkie community about Yorkies in particular, so I really do appreciate you taking the time to answer my question and more so, going further in depth with your answer after answering me the first time.
