Penetrance of the skeletal abnormalities expressed as a percentage of the embryos analyzed for each genotype. Abbreviations and phenotypes are described in the text. The expressivity of the C1 to occipital transformation is much more severe in Asxl1; Cbx2 double mutants than in Asxl1 homozygotes (see Fig. 4C).
