Abstract excerpt
Collins (1985) has described two separate mouse strains, obtained by selective breeding, which differ in having high (HI) or low (LO) degrees of paw preference on a standard test. In this paper I argue that the differences between these strains may not be due to a specific gene (or genes) but, in...
