[QUOTE="BM_UIUC, post: 219944, member: 3990"] Hello, I work in Dr. Jon Beever's lab at the University of Illinois. We are currently working on finding the defect that causes PHA. One thing that I should point out is that a PHA calf is NOT a bulldog calf. They are two completely different defects. PHA calves are born with little or no lungs, and they are all dead at birth. The amount of edema varies from calf to calf. We have had 150 lbs - 280 lbs calves reported. Currently, PHA is found in Maine-Anjou cattle and Shorthorns with Maine-Anjou backgrounds. If anyone would like any other information, you can contact me via e-mail: [email=bhaton@uiuc.edu]bhaton@uiuc.edu[/email] Also, to the original poster, if you had time, would it be possible for you to drop me an e-mail and let me know what the bull and cow this calf came from? We are in the mapping stage (finding the gene that is mutated) right now and that information might be helpful in our search if you wouldn't mind. [/QUOTE]
