Abstract excerpt
As an adjunct to our efforts to identify the genes that determine peak bone density, we examined phenotypic differences between two inbred strains of mice, C3H/HeJ (C3H) and C57BL/6J (B6), which are of similar size but differ with respect to peak bone density (e.g., C3H mice have 53% higher femoral bone density than B6 mice). The current studies were intended to compare the skeletal responses of C3H and B6 mice...
