Abstract excerpt
The mouse rump white (Rw) mutation causes a pigmentation defect in heterozygotes and embryonic lethality in homozygotes. At embryonic day (E) 7.5, Rw/Rw embryos are retarded in growth, fail to complete neurulation and die around E 9.5. The Rw mutation is associated with a chromosomal inversion sp...
