Phenotypes Associated with This Genotype

Genotype
MGI:4829948

• Allelic Composition: a^m/a
• Genetic Background: involves: 101/Rl * C3H/Rl

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

pigmentation

irregular coat pigmentation ( J:5964 , J:29504 )

• Background Sensitivity: there is a continuum of color pattern ranging from all black indistinguishable from mice with a a^e genotype, see a^e , to degrees of yellow mottling on a black background, to mice with an agouti coat color pattern (J:5964)

• Background Sensitivity: the genetic background of the mother influences the coat pattern of the offspring (J:5964)

• mice are mottled with agouti and nonagouti patches of fur with hairs of both types intermingled at the pattern edges (J:29504)

mottled coat ( J:29504 )

• matings of genotype a^m/a to a/a mice produce about 50% mottled offspring
