Abstract:
Complete agenesis of the bony labyrinth, first described by Michel, represents the most severe form of inner ear defect. A search of the literature yielded only one report of this rare anomaly, affecting two siblings. Three familial cases of bilateral inner ear aplasia are reported here, and the probable inheritance pattern of this condition is discussed.

Lethal Alleles
Lucien Cuénot discovered lethal alleles in 1905 while studying the inheritance of coat color in mice. The agouti gene is responsible for the color of the coat in mice. This gene codes for an agouti-signaling protein, which is responsible for melanin distribution in mammals. The wild-type allele gives rise to gray-brown coat color in mice, while the mutant allele gives rise to yellow coat color. In addition to coat color, the agouti gene is associated with the yellow...
