Background: Selection for body weight provides important animal models for studying mechanisms of growth regulation. This study evaluated growth responses of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) to long-term selection of mice for high (H line) or low (L line) 8-week body weight as compared with random-b
A random-bred strain (Q) was established and divided into six replicates. Each replicate was divergently selected for 6-week weight (for over 30 generations) and each had an unselected control. We have investigated the H-2 haplotype of individual mice of the 18 selected Q strains to determine whethe
