Genetics, 1933•ncbi.nlm.nih.govHUNT, MIXTER, and PERMAR (1933) have described the mode of inheritance of flexed tail
in the house mouse, a mutation discovered by HUNT in the rodent colony of the Department
of Zoology at the MICHI-GAN STATE COLLEGE. Flexed tailed mice are characterized by
fusions between adjacent caudal vertebrae, and as a rule by angular or spiral bends in the
tail. The character is a Mendelian recessive, but there is a deficiency of flexed individuals in
F2 and backcross populations because the mutants have a higher death rate than their …

HUNT, MIXTER, and PERMAR (1933) have described the mode of inheritance of flexed tail in the house mouse, a mutation discovered by HUNT in the rodent colony of the Department of Zoology at the MICHI-GAN STATE COLLEGE. Flexed tailed mice are characterized by fusions between adjacent caudal vertebrae, and as a rule by angular or spiral bends in the tail. The character is a Mendelian recessive, but there is a deficiency of flexed individuals in F2 and backcross populations because the mutants have a higher death rate than their normal siblings. Newborn flexed mice are anemic, and the purpose of this paper is to describe the inheritance and characteristics of this anemia.
