Abstract excerpt
PWD/Ph and PWK/Ph (abbreviated PW*) are highly inbred mouse strains (F66 and F70) derived from wild mice of Mus musculus musculus subspecies. When compared with laboratory inbred strains, they display a plethora of differences in many complex phenotypes such as body weight, fat distribution pattern, blood levels of intermediary metabolites, sensitivity to type-1 diabetes or behaviour patterns. The PWD/Ph genes...
