The role of growth hormone in lines of mice divergently selected on body weight.

Genetical research - 1 Apr 1993

Hastings I M, Bootland L H, Hill W G

Abstract excerpt

An understanding of the physiological and genetic changes which determine the response to selection is critical for both evolutionary theory and to assess the application of new molecular techniques to commercial animal breeding. We investigated an aspect of physiology, growth hormone (GH) metabolism, which might a priori have been expected to play a large part in the response of mouse lines selected for high or...
