Abstract excerpt

The genetic control of mouse susceptibility to Chlamydia psittaci was investigated after intravenous inoculation of 2 x 10(5) plaque-forming units (pfu). Splenic counts 6 days after inoculation gave the level of susceptibility. Results from inoculation of mice from H-2 congenic strains with three...
