Abstract excerpt
Resistance to infections with Heligmosomoides bakeri is associated with a significant quantitative trait locus (QTL-Hbnr1) on mouse chromosome 1 (MMU1). We exploited recombinant mice, with a segment of MMU1 from susceptible C57Bl/10 mice introgressed onto MMU1 in intermediate responder NOD mice (strains 1094 and 6109). BALB/c (intermediate responder) and C57Bl/6 mice (poor responder) were included as control...
