There are several types of dwarfism; some are predetermined by inheritance, others are the result of internal or external circunstances. True hereditary dwarfism is essentially an inherited characteristic dependent on chromosomal constitution. In the dwarf goats of Africa two different hereditary forms occur: pituitary hypoplasia and achondroplasia.  aAnimal genetics  aGenetic disorders  aGoats  aGrowth disorders  aCaprino  aGenética Animal  aAnomalia  aDwarfism  tEast African Agricultural Journalgv. 18, n. 3, p. 123-132, Nov. 1953.
