Multi-phenotype behavioral characterization of inbred strains derived from wild stocks of Mus musculus.

Abstract excerpt

Many aspects of mouse behavior have been studied by using only a relatively small sample of available laboratory strains. These laboratory mice were derived from the so-called "fancy mouse" and in most cases underwent extensive domestication before inbreeding. Thus, the behavioral repertoire of the laboratory mouse may be very different from that exhibited by stocks that have not been deliberately domesticated....
