Muscle opacity (mo), a new mutant gene in Xenopus laevis, linked to the rusty locus.

Genetical research - 1 Jun 1991

Droin A

Abstract excerpt

A new developmental mutant is described in Xenopus laevis (Amphibia, Anura): muscle opacity (mo). Homozygotes die at larval stage 48. The underlying defect, visible at stage 47, is a degeneration of cephalic musculature. The mo gene is linked to the rusty locus, with a map distance of 6.1%.
