CORRIGENDUM

Abstract

An error appeared in the legend for Figure 17, Page 147 of the article by Blackwell et al., "A Hydrocephalic Lethal in Hereford Cattle," which appeared in the May-June 1959 issue of the Journal. The legend as it should read is as follows: Pedigree showing introduction of lethal gene through sire A and typical matings that produced hycirocephalic calves. Old line mates omitted for simplicity. Squares represent males; circles, females; diamond, sex unknown. Solid shaded symbols represent hydrocephalic calves; solid half-shaded symbols represent parents of hydrocephalic calves cross-hatched half-shaded symbols represent animals incriminated as carriers through their descendants. The coefficients of relationship between 19 lethals and bulls A and D averaged 21 percent and 38 percent, respectively. The coefficients of relationship among the 19 lethals averaged 26 percent and their inbreeding coefficients averaged 11.7 percent.
