Abnormal erythrocyte morphology in Ahsp^–/–α-globin*^α/αα double-mutant mice. Wright-Giemsa staining of peripheral blood from mice with genotypes indicated. Note that variations in erythrocyte size and shape are more severe in the compound Ahsp–α-globin mutants (far right panel). Original magnification, ×200.
