Abstract excerpt
Complex nonadditive interactions between specific alleles at multiple loci may underlie many so-called multifactorial threshold birth defects. The open-eyelids-at-birth defect in mice is a good model for these defects, and an understanding of its genetic complexity begins with mapping the participating loci. The open-eyelids defect can be part of a syndrome or can occur with no other obvious phenotypic effects....
