Abstract

Microphthalmia in mice of the mutant stock “blind” is inherited as an autosomic recessive character with complete penetrance. It was shown that b1 does not belong to the I, V, or XI linkage groups; b1 and mi are not alleles. The eye structure of the microphthalmic animals shows a marked deviation from the normal, the abnormality exhibiting a wide diversity. Microphthalmia was not accompanied by any visible anomalies of other organs, or by decreased viability of fertility.
