Abstract excerpt
The genetic reference population of recombinant inbred BXD mice has been derived from crosses between C57BL/6J and DBA/2J strains. The DBA/2J parent exhibits cardiomyopathy phenotypes, whereas C57BL/6J has normal heart. BXD mice are sequenced for studying genetic interactions in cardiomyopathies. The study aimed to assess cardiomyopathy traits in BXDs and investigate the quantitative genetic architecture of those...
