(2015), The condition is characterised by truncal shortening, extensive hemivertebrae and rib anomalies including malalignment, fusion and reduction in number. Also, The three affected pups were born stillborn or died within hours of birth. Gross external examination of the pups by the attending veterinarian revealed a reduction in body length compared with normal littermates (data not available). The hindquarters of affected pups were reduced in size compared to the forequarters, giving an overall comma-like morphology to the body. One of the affected samples had umbilical hernia and another had a cleft hard palate.`\n- `Defect: yes`\n- `Prevalence: Willet et al. (2015) tested 127 Miniature Schnauzers and six Standard Schnauzers for the deletion. Only the three affected pups tested homozygous for the mutant allele, and four family members tested heterozygous, giving an estimated allele frequency of 0.04 for the eastern Australian population tested. Carrier imported family members from Sweden and Argentina suggest that the allele may be globally dispersed.`\n## Associated gene(s)\nDerived from OMIA database dump (omia.xml, local); structured field, not verbatim prose.

(2015), based on location and phenotype in the mouse, revealed 19 positional comparative candidate genes. Whole-genome sequencing of two of the affected sibs revealed 5 candidate functional mutations, which were subsequently narrowed down to the causal mutation, a \"guanine deletion at CFA5:35,940,090 (CFA5:32,945,846 in canFam3.1) within exon 2 of HES7 (c.126d…\n\n## Evidence (references)\nDerived from OMIA database dump (omia.xml, local); structured field, not verbatim prose.
