Abstract excerpt
One approach to identifying the genetic influences on skeletal phenotypes involves the creation and genetic mapping of a population of the second filial (F2) offspring derived from a cross of two inbred strains of rodents. The two inbred strains should be chosen based upon a large difference in the phenotype of interest, e.g., bone fragility. We found previously that considerable variation exists in fragility...
