Head blebs: a new mutation on chromosome 4 of the mouse.
The development effects and inheritance of a new mutation in the mouse, head blebs, gene symbol heb, are described. This mutation is similar to two other autosomal recessive mutations, eb and my. Head blebs produces abnormal or missing eyes due to prenatal blebs, usually on the head, some fetal death, open eyelids, and folded retinas at birth. Extra toes or ectopic brains are occasionally observed. Affected adults usually have closed eyelids and atrophic eyes. Head blebs is located on chromosome 4, four units from pintail (Pt).

Blind-sterile: a new mutation on chromosome 2 of the house mouse.
The inheritance and developmental effects of a new recessive mutation in the mouse, blind-sterile (bs), are described. This mutation causes lenticular cataracts and glossy coat in males and females and sterility in males due to arrested spermatogenesis. Blind-sterile is located on chromosome 2, near agouti.
