Summary
Gregory and Spahr (1979) report a purebred Charolais sire of normal phenotype who produced miniature male and female progeny at a rate less then 50% when bred to Charolais females or females from different breeds. A dominant mode of inheritance due to a possible do novo germline variant in the bull was proposed by the authors.
