OMIA:000114-56790 : Blindness in Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax |
In other species: chicken , gray wolf
Categories: Vision / eye phene
Links to MONDO diseases: No links.
Mendelian trait/disorder: yes
Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive lethal
Considered a defect: yes
Key variant known: no
Species-specific description: The common name for this species is "red-billed chough"
History: Trask et al. (2016) "demonstrate the phenotypic expression of a lethal recessive allele in a wild population of conservation concern, and provide a general framework for inferring allele distribution and persistence and informing management responses"
Inheritance: Trask et al. (2016) provided evidence of autosomal recessive inheritance of this lethal condition.
