Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To survey inbred rat strains for renin alleles and to test those alleles for effects on blood pressure. DESIGN: Rat strains with renin alleles different from the s allele carried by inbred Dahl salt-sensitive (SS/Jr) rats were crossed with SS/Jr rats and subsequently intercrossed to produce F2 populations. Thus, in each F2 population segregation of the s renin allele and a contrasting renin allele...
