Mutation Description "Interestingly, regarding Ochotona princeps (American pika) mutational SRA validation, two scenarios were observed: approximately 50% of aligned reads supported the presence of a premature stop codon in the DRD5 gene of this species, with the remaining set of aligning reads supporting the absence of a premature stop codon in the same species. This suggest that a polymorphic loss event might have occurred in this species, with non-functional and functional alleles currently segregating in the correspondent population." 10.7717/peerj.7758
