Abstract excerpt
The C57BL/6J strain is one of the most widely used animal models for biomedical research, and individual mice within the strain are often assumed to be genetically identical after more than 70 yr of inbreeding. Using a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping panel, we assessed if copy number variations (CNVs) could be detected within the C57BL/6J strain by comparing relative allele frequencies in first...
