Abstract excerpt
Patchy fur is a semidominant X-linked mutation in the mouse, resulting in a sparse coat. The Paf mutation also alters the normal segregation of the X and the Y chromosomes during male meiosis by causing nondisjunction at anaphase I. Analysis of 1139 female meioses from an intersubspecific backcross using 15 PCR-based markers localizes Paf to an approximately 0.2-cM interval that includes the pseudoautosomal...
