If appropriately determined, recombinant-inbred (RI) strain means provide an excellent method for determining genetic correlations among complex characters. However, little systematic attention has been paid to important environmental influences on strain means such as random effects due to litter membership or systematic maternal influences, which are inevitably confounded with genetic effects. It is suggested...
