An inherited cataract in New Zealand Romney sheep.

H V Brooks1, R D Jolly, D M West, A N Bruere.   

Abstract

A bilateral cataract was noted to occur in sheep on a New Zealand Romney stud. Extensive breeding trials showed that this defect was inherited as an autosomal dominant. As such this form of cataract is of minimal importance to the sheep industry as control is merely by culling affected individuals.
