Abstract
|
|
|
|
At present over 3 dozen mutant genes have been recognized in the Mexican axolotl. These genes, all recessives, are categorized in 5 groups according to the nature of their effects and the developmental stage at which their phenotype is predominately expressed. They are genes affecting the oogenesis (maternal-effect genes), genes affecting the size of the nucleolus, genes affecting the development of specific tissues and organs, genes exert lethal effects on all cells or tissues (autonomous lethals), and genes affecting pigment cells. This report describes briefly the phenotypes and some of the current research applications of those genes.
