OMIA:000147-9913 : Brachygnathia in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

In other species: dog , ass (donkey) , horse , pig , llama , white-tailed deer , giraffe , sheep , alpaca

Categories: Skeleton phene (incl. short stature & teeth) , Craniofacial phene

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Disease-related: yes

Cross-species summary: Congenital abnormal shortness of the mandible (lower jaw), resulting in protrusion of the maxilla (upper jaw).

Species-specific name: Lethal brachygnathia trisomy syndrome

Species-specific description: Some forms of brachygnathia in cattle are associated with trisomy 18; it is the only documented example of a recognisable disorder being apparently due to autosomal trisomy in domestic animals. Widmer et al. (2023) report a risk locus on BTA5 to be associated with brachygnathia inferior in Brown Swiss cattle - see OMIA:002759-9913 : Brachygnathia, WNT10B-related.
