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

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal dominant

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Gregory and Spahr (1979) report a purebred Charolais sire of normal phenotype who produced miniature male and female progeny at a rate less then 50% when bred to Charolais females or females from different breeds. A dominant mode of inheritance due to a possible do novo germline variant in the bull was proposed by the authors.

Breed: Charolais (Cattle) (VBO_0000177).
Breeds in which the phene has been documented. (If a likely causal variant has been documented for the phene, see the variant table breeds in which the variant has been reported).
