Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To localize the chromosomal position of a novel cataract mutation (juvenile recessive cataract; jrc) in mice. METHODS: A mapping population was developed by crossing cataract males (albino MH) to wild-type females (black C57BL/6J). F1 females were backcrossed to albino MH males with cataracts. RESULTS: The results were consistent with a model of a single autosomal recessive gene [153 cataract, 169...
