The dramatic dwarfism exhibited by mutants in the CYP (cytochrome P450) enzymes involved in BR biosynthesis indicates a role for these hormones in plant growth and development. Since the mid-1990s, collaborative research has been geared towards developing a better understanding of the CYP85 class ...

A review of the radiographs of children previously classified as achondroplasiacs revealed six thanatophoric dwarfs. The main radiological differentiating features were the greater degree of shortening of the long bones, including the fibula, the curvature of the femora, the very small size of the thorax and, particularly, the very narrow ossified elements of the vertebral bodies. Perhaps the m...
