phenotypes

All mutations/alleles(24) : Chemically induced (ENU)(5) Spontaneous(1) Targeted(15) Transgenic(3)
Genomic Mutations involving Rho (1)
Incidental mutations (data from Mutagenetix , APF )
 

Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation fail to develop retinal rod outer segments and lose their photoreceptors. Heterozygotes exhibit some disorganization of their photoreceptors and a shortening of the outer segments with age.
