pigmentation
• medullary pigment was highly clumped, though individual granules could be resolved in some medullary septae
• some granules were long ovals, but irregular shapes were common
• cortical granule shape varied from oval to nearly spherical
• melanocyte pigment granules in the choroid were few in number, and were unusually large
• melanocyte pigment granules in the choroid were few in number, and were unusually large
• melanocyte pigment granules in the iris were few in number, and were unusually large
• melanocyte pigment granules in the retina were few in number, and were unusually large

vision/eye

integument
• medullary pigment was highly clumped, though individual granules could be resolved in some medullary septae
• some granules were long ovals, but irregular shapes were common
• cortical granule shape varied from oval to nearly spherical
• about 5% of mice lost most of the dorsum hairs of the first coat prematurely following cessation of the first hair growth cycle
• about 5% of mice lost most of the dorsum hairs of the first coat prematurely following cessation of the first hair growth cycle
• an apparently normal second coat grew in these mice but the second hair growth cycle appeared somewhat delayed
