(Dashed lines show dorsal/lateral dividing line).The main effect of the diffusion gene appears to alter the pattern starting at this point. Once cells reach this point, they seem to scatter in different directions instead of remaining in a single group. This results in an increasing amount of diffusion (blurring) of the pattern the further down the sides it goes. It may also slow the migration process at this point in time, as it appears to keep the belly checkers from reaching their destination, and also appears to thin the border areas. The newly discovered pied-sided trait also appears to affect migration starting at this point. However, instead of scattering the pattern, it either stops or severely slows it. The parts of the pattern normally found all the way down on the belly are instead found on the sides of these corns. The areas beyond this are left a clean white color, creating an appearance as if the snake has been dipped in white paint. Additionally, migration does not always reach the end of the nose, which can leave white areas on the face. The same may be discovered on the tail.
