OMIA:001446-93934 : Feather colour, recessive white (quail) in Coturnix japonica (Japanese quail)

Categories: Pigmentation phene

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Considered a defect: no

Key variant known: no

Mapping: Minvielle et al. (2002) showed that this locus is not orthologous to recessive white in chickens.

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