Examples of the effect of functional genetic manipulations on major male horn shape. RNAi-mediated gene expression knockdown of Distal-less (DllRNAi), dachs (dRNAi) and Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3RNAi) had strong effects on horn shape and strongly increased the curvature of the horn compared to buffer-injected control animals.
