Genetic and experimental studies on a pigment mutation, Pale (Pa), in the frog, Bombina orientalis
1980
Journal of embryology and experimental morphology
A mutant gene, Pale, (Pa) has been discovered in the discoglossid frog, Bombina orientalis. Breeding experiments indicate that the gene is recessive to the wild-type allele (P). Embryos, tadpoles and adults homozygous for the Pale gene are lighter in coloration than wild-type animals. Eggs produced by Pale females appear normally pigmented. Neural-retina defects were apparent in Pale tadpoles. Parabiosis experiments revealed that the Pale and wild-type phenotypes were unaffected by circulating
