Abstract excerpt
Laboratory strains of house mice (Mus domesticus) are increasingly used as model organisms in evolutionary physiology, so information on levels of genetic variation is important. For example, are levels of genetic variation comparable to those found in populations of wild house mice? We studied allozymes to estimate genetic variation in outbred Hsd:ICR mice, which have been used in several studies with...
