Abstract excerpt
The mouse strain ddN from Japan was crossed with three other inbred strains prone to absence of the corpus callosum (BALB/cWah1, I/LnJ and 129/ReJ), and at least one brain with abnormally small corpus callosum was observed in offspring from each F1 hybrid cross. Data for several polymorphic protein markers revealed that the four strains are not closely related genetically. Nevertheless, they share common genetic...
