Abstract excerpt
Based on crosses among inbred strains derived principally from M. m. domesticus, sucrose octaacetate (SOA) aversion in laboratory mice has been thought for many years to be controlled by a single genetic locus (Soa) located on distal chromosome (Chr) 6. To expand knowledge of the genetic basis underlying SOA aversion, we have studied the M. m. molossinus derived strain (MSM) and MSM consomic strains on a M. m....
