Mice that are heterozygous for the ragged (Ra) mutation, which is semidominant, have ragged coats caused by an absence of certain hair types. Ra/Ra homozygous mice usually die soon after birth, are naked, and have edema. Mice that are homozygous for the recessive mutation wasted (wst) appear norm...
