Privacy: Photographs of mutants will remain public indefinitely, even if taken by an investigator, or available only as cryopreserved germplasm. No indication will be made as to whether or not a particular mutant has been requested by an independent investigator.
For a detailed research article click on the mutation symbol.
When an investigator expresses interest in a particular mutant, 2 breeder pairs will be provided as soon as possible., for the price of shipping.
