,
dog
Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number):
142500 (trait)
Mendelian trait/disorder:
unknown
Considered a defect:
yes
Cross-species summary:
Difference in colour of the iris in the two eyes, or in different areas of one iris.
Species-specific name:
Glass eye
Species-specific description:
In pigs, part (partial heterochromia) or all (complete heterochromia) of the iris lacks pigment.
Inheritance:
Reconciling data from Durr (1937) and Gelati et al. (1973), Ollivier and Sellier (1981) concluded that bilateral complete heterochromiairidis is autosomal recessive, and that heterozygotes show unilateral and partial heterochromia.
