Abstract excerpt
Oligosyndactylism (Os) is a radiation-induced mutation on mouse chromosome 8 associated with early postimplantation lethality in homozygotes and abnormal development of the limbs and kidneys in heterozygotes. The recessive lethal effect of Os is due to a mitotic block of the embryonic cells that becomes apparent at the blastocyst stage, but it is not known if the heterozygous effect of Os is due to...
