Sex-specific heterosis in line crosses of mice selectively bred for high locomotor activity.

Behavior genetics - 1 Jul 2011

Abstract excerpt

When populations with similar histories of directional selection are crossed, their offspring may differ in mean phenotype as compared with the average for the parental populations, often exhibiting enhancement of the mean phenotype (termed heterosis or hybrid vigor). We tested for heterosis in a cross of two replicate lines of mice selectively bred for high voluntary wheel running for 53 generations. Mice were...
