A quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis was performed on the size and shape of the mandible in F(2) mice between KK-A ( y ) and C57BL/6 J strains and the effect of the A ( y ) allele on the morphology of the mandible was analyzed. A total of 13 measurements were taken on each right mandible. By means of discriminant and canonical discriminant analyses, KK-A ( y ) males and KK males were exactly discriminated...
