We suggest that attributing phenotypes to genetic background effects is outmoded and that new databases containing single-nucleotide polymorphisms obtained with a group of inbred mouse strains can ...

Researchers at our AAALAC-accredited animal facility use an inbred strain of mice to generate offspring for bone development studies. Animal care personnel set up a breeding unit by placing one ...

In 1909, he produced the first inbred mouse strain, DBA, from repeatedly mating brother-sister pairs. Against a "fixed" genetic background, Little sought to sort a trait far more complex than coat ...

2 The parental strains of these CC lines consist of eight of the most genotypically and phenotypically diverse inbred mouse strains available: A/J, C57BL/6J, NOD/ShiLtJ, 129S1/SvImJ, and NZO/HlLtJ ...

We are developing a set of standardized test batteries (the "Mouse IQ" test) to study the behaviour of inbred, mutant and knockout mice ... test batteries to examine behavioural development in ...
