OMIA:001753-9031 : Naked, sex-linked in Gallus gallus (chicken)

Categories: Integument (skin) phene

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Z-linked recessive

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific symbol: n

History: This trait was first reported by Hutt and Sturkie (1938).

Inheritance: Somes (1990) lists this trait as Z-linked recessive, based on the work of Hutt and Sturkie (1938), who assigned the symbol "n".

Genetic engineering: Unknown
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing

Breed: White Leghorn (Chicken) (VBO_0000646).
