Developmental interactions in the pigmentary system of the tip of the mouse tail: effects of coat-color genes on the expression of a tail-spotting gene.

The Journal of experimental zoology - 1 Jun 1991

Hirobe T

Abstract excerpt

The tails of agouti C3H/HeJmsHir mice are completely pigmented, whereas the tails of black C57BL/10JHir animals possess unpigmented tips. Genetic analysis indicates that white tail-tipping is due to an autosomal recessive gene, with incomplete penetrance, that segregates independently from the gene for agouti with a maternal influence in the F1 generation. To analyze the influence of specific coat-color genes on...
