Abstract
The mutation was incompletely recessive, and characterized by noticeable dwarfing and functional disorders in both heterozygous and homozygous individuals. The abnormalities suggested a primary disorder of the anterior pituitary with secondary effects on other endocrine glands.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
