The influence of some t-haplotypes on the phenotypic manifestation of fused and kinky genes located on chromosome 17 of the house mouse was studied. It was shown that t12-haplotype decreases the penetrance of these genes to 59-70%. The effect was observed when the Fu gene (or Ki) is transmitted from the females heterozygous for t12-haplotype. This haplotype only affects manifestation of the Fu and Ki genes in the F1.
