Abstract

A female sheep with a 53, X karyotype was discovered while screening barren ewes at a commercial sheep ranch in New Mexico. She was physically normal in phenotype, in very good flesh due to freedom from nursing offspring, and her external genitalia were normal. This is the first case of monosomy X to be documented in sheep.
