TESTED FREE–Oculocutaneous Hypopigmentation (OH)
Oculocutaneous Hypopigmentation (OH) was recognized on November 2, 2015. It is a non-lethal genetic condition of beef cattle, inherited as a simple recessive. Affected calves have eyes with irises that are pale blue around the pupil with a tan periphery. Their hair coats have a slightly bleached color. While some affected calves have sensitivity to light, they are believed to be otherwise normal functionally and physiologically. The condition is largely cosmetic in nature.
