Moura E, Prado AMRB, Pimpao CT, Murakami CT and Ribeiro DR

This article provides an overview of the current state of knowledge regarding the genetics and anatomical pathology of bovine prenatal lethal chondrodysplasia, describing the characteristic phenotype of affected animals and the Mendelian and molecular aspects of genetic inheritance. It also suggests etiological possibilities based on human clinical genetics and is the first record of a spontaneous occurrence in the Nellore breed.
