OMIA:000683-8128 : Muscular hypertrophy (double muscling) in Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) |
In other species: Japanese flounder , Mallard , rock pigeon , chicken , dog , pig , taurine cattle , goat , sheep , rabbit , pacu , water buffalo , Japanese quail , red seabream , yellow catfish
Categories: Muscle phene
Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 601788 (gene) , 614160 (trait)
Links to relevant human diseases in MONDO:
Single-gene trait/disorder: yes
Disease-related: no
Key variant known: no
Cross-species summary: Abnormal increase in muscular tissue caused entirely by enlargement of existing cells (in contrast to muscular hyperplasia, in which the abnormal increase in muscular tissue is due to the formation and growth of new, normal muscle cells)
Species-specific description: This phene includes references to studies involving gene edited or genetically modified organisms (GMO).
