Abstract excerpt
Deermice of the genus Peromyscus are well suited for addressing several questions of biologist interest, including the genetic bases of longevity, behavior, physiology, adaptation, and their ability to serve as disease vectors. Here, we explore a diversity outbred approach for dissecting complex traits in Peromyscus leucopus, a nontraditional genetic model system. We take advantage of a closed colony of deer-mice...
