In other species: taurine cattle , sheep

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

Single-gene trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Cross-species summary: conditions involving multiple joint contractures (or stiffness)
