Abstract excerpt
To investigate the cellular action of the Miwh allele in the mouse with regard to its effects upon coat color patterns, we generated a series of aggregation chimeras, using embryos that differ in their mi locus genotype. We have obtained 11 chimeras Miwh/+C/C<==>+/+ c/c and 8 chimeras +/+ C/C<==>+/+ c/c. Chimerism was determined by coat and retinal pigment epithelium mosaicism and by the electrophoretic analysis...
