In other species: chicken , dog , domestic cat , pig , deer , taurine cattle , indicine cattle (zebu) , sheep , raccoon dog

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

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 181440 (trait) , 188700 (trait) , 259200 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Disease-related: yes

Cross-species summary: Abnormal growth ossification centers in young, growing animals. Initially a degeneration/ necrosis followed by regeneration or recalcification. Osteochondrosis (OC) lesions that result is bone or cartilage fragments are called osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) - see OMIA:000748.
