integument

abnormal coat/ hair morphology ( J:13413 )

abnormal auchene hair morphology ( J:100288 )

• the proximal segment is longer

abnormal hair growth ( J:100288 , J:13413 )

• all hairtypes are significantly longer (J:100288)

• coat guard hairs show greatest increase in length (J:100288)

• juvenile and the adult coats are affected (J:13413)

• evident beginning about 18 days old by the extra length of guard hairs (J:13413)

• dermal-epidermal recombination grafts show the mutation is due to abnormalities in the epidermis (J:13413)

long hair ( J:13413 )

increased guard hair length ( J:100288 , J:13413 )

• show greatest increase in length (J:100288)

• at weaning the guard hairs are more than twice normal length (J:13413)

abnormal zigzag hair morphology ( J:100288 )

• there are four rather than three segments

• each of the three distal segments is longer

increased vibrissae length ( J:13413 )

abnormal hair cycle ( J:100288 )

• age of eruption of the second hair coat in females was slightly delayed

• the entire hair cycle is 2 to 3 days longer than normal due to an increase in the anagen phase
