Also, some hairs of Moto/+ female mice which were devoid of pigment appeared enlarged and bitubular. The whiskers of +/+ and Moto/+ female mice were identical in form. The hair abnormalities of Moto/+ female mice resulted from a copper deficiency and were similar to those hair anomalies observed in other mottled mice and in copper-deficient crinkled mice.
