Scope note: Cepas mutantes de ratas que poseen escaso o ningún pelo. Hay diversas mutaciones recesivas diferentes que pueden causar la ausencia de pelo, como rnu/rnu (rata desnuda Rowett), fz/fz (de "fuzzy", pelusa), shn/shn (se "shorn", pelada) y nznu/nznu (rata New Zealand desnuda). Observar que aunque las RATAS DESNUDAS con frecuencia carecen de pelo, más caracetrísticamente son atímicas.

Scope note: Mutant strains of rats that produce little or no hair. Several different homozygous recessive mutations can cause hairlessness in rats including rnu/rnu (Rowett nude), fz/fz (fuzzy), shn/shn (shorn), and nznu/nznu (New Zealand nude). Note that while NUDE RATS are often hairless, they are most characteristically athymic.
