I have several dozen new F1s that are just now starting to ripen. Several of these have a orange colored inbred parent tracing to Sungold or SunSugar. After looking at these hybrids this afternoon, I'm now thinking that the orange color in Sungold/SunSugar is dominant, either Del or B. I have some other unrelated orange lines that are tangerine, and some crosses that confound these genes - but it is starting to make some sense now.
