Abstract excerpt
Mice of the C57BL/6ByJ (B6) strain have higher consumption of sucrose, and stronger peripheral neural responses to it, than do mice of the 129P3/J (129) strain. To identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) responsible for this strain difference and to evaluate the contribution of peripheral taste r...
