Abstract excerpt
The combination of the KitW or KitW-n mutant alleles and KitS from Mus spretus results in male hybrid sterility with small testes. In the present study, reproduction of the combination between KitW-v and KitS alleles was examined. The KitW-v/KitS male was fertile and the histologic structure was normal; the seminiferous tubules showed all of the normal stages of spermatogenesis. The postnatal development of the...
