## Abstract Nonβsyndromic cleft lip with/without cleft palate (CL/P) is a common, usually nonβfatal birth defect of complex etiology. Several segregation analyses have demonstrated that genetic factors are important in the pathogenesis of CL/P, most likely through the interaction of several genes o
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a heritable trait, and in mice, over 100 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been reported, but candidate genes have been identified for only a small percentage. Persistent errors in the mouse genetic map have negatively affected QTL localization, spurring the developme
