Abstract excerpt
Chimeras provide unique opportunities to study interactions between the phenotypically similar but genotypically allogeneic cell populations during embryogenesis in vivo. From the quantitative analysis of coat-color patterns in C3H/HeN----BALB/cA chimeras, a model was proposed stating that the ag...
