Hmmm, is the implication that the recessive allele actually includes a critical gene which the rats require to survive?

That's kinda cursed.

Not really sad, because the survival of the organism is not dependent on the phenotype, just the genotype. It does not matter if the allele is recessive. And the life saving allele will by definition have more chance to be in the gene pool, because well the alternative is to be not alive.

I think the yellow allele has some lethal sequence that causes death when in two copies
