Abstract:
One hundred and five Basenjis of varying ages were examined for the presence of persistent pupillary membrane. Lesions were detected in 75 individuals and were judged to be of minor significance in 26 cases, and of major significance in 49 cases. A system of scoring individuals for breeding merit was devised. The condition would appear to be a major problem in the breed in Victoria and some control measures are warranted.
