Central areolar choroidal dystrophy(CACD) is a hereditary retinal disorder that primarily affects the macula. In the early stages, there is subtle, mottled depigmentation in the posterior pole. Ultimately, the depigmentation enlarges into in a well-circumscribed round or oval area of atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium(RPE) and choriocapillaris in the center of the macula. Patients usually become symptomatic in the [third] to [fourth] decade when a fine, hardly detectable, mottling of the RPE leads to the development of absolute central visual scotomas. Later, between the [fourth] and [seventh] decade of life, progressive macular atrophy leads to a dramatic decline in central visual acuity and severe visual disability. CACD may be autosomal dominant or recessive; however, autosomal-recessive cases are rare. Although CACD has a genetic basis, sporadic cases have been reported. 3, record 1, English, - central%20areolar%20choroidal%20dystrophy

Spider lamb syndrome is a heritable congenital abnormality caused by a recessive gene that produces a range of skeletal deformities in lambs. The problem, which seem to have been first observed in the early 1970’s, became a topic of serious concern to breeders in the early and middle 1980’s. Many of the most popular bloodlines in the Suffolk and Hampshire breeds seemingly carried this damaging gene. Sheep which had tracings in their pedigrees to suspected carriers of this gene were said "grey" pedigrees, whereas those sheep which had no apparent incidence of carriers in their pedigrees were designated as "white pedigreed" sheep. 5, record 12, English, - spider%20syndrome
