Fin Length Inheritance in Brachydanio rerio

Fin Length Inheritance in Brachydanio rerio

Two different fin length variants are found in the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio: the shortfinned (wild-type) zebrafish and the long-finned mutant. Single-pair crossing between the short- and long-finned strains showed that the fin-length inheritance is determined by a single locus, with the allele f...

Zusammenfassung:Two different fin length variants are found in the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio: the shortfinned (wild-type) zebrafish and the long-finned mutant. Single-pair crossing between the short- and long-finned strains showed that the fin-length inheritance is determined by a single locus, with the allele for long fins, L, being dominant over that for short fins, I.
