N normal phenotype
vision/eye
• in 75% of mutant eyes retinal dysplasia is seen with finger like projections of photoreceptor cells protruding into the outer nuclear layer and/or invagination of the retina without disrupting the cell layers
• dysplasia can be detected on P1
• photoreceptor outer segments appear elongated and disorganized
• axons are loosely bundled and occasionally have aberrant trajectories however all exit the optic disc normally

nervous system
• motor neurons are loosely bundled with some axons exiting the bundles at a right angle to the adjacent nerve and ending blindly or forming bridges to neighboring bundles
• photoreceptor outer segments appear elongated and disorganized
