Abstract excerpt
We previously reported the construction of two sets of heterozygous congenic strains spanning the mouse genome. For both sets, C57BL/6J was employed as the background strain while DNA from either DBA/2 or CAST/Ei was introgressed to form the congenic region. We have subsequently bred most of these strains to produce homozygous breeding stocks. Here, we report the characterization of the strain set based on...
