A set of recombinant-inbred strains developed from mouse strains BALB/c and C57BL/6 includes two beta-glucuronidase phenotypes that are not seen in either of the progenitor strains. These new recombinant phenotypes indicate that glucuronidase levels are regulated by genes additional to the Gur locus

β¦ Synopsis
beta-Phenylethylamine (PEA) is an amphetamine-like compound that is postulated to be a possible endogenous psychotogen. We studied locomotor response to PEA in two inbred progenitor strains of mice (C57BL/6 By and BALB/c By), their reciprocal F1 hybrids (B6CF1 and CB6F1), and seven recombinant inbred strains (CXBD, CXBE, CXBG, CXBH, CXBI, CXGJ, and CXBK). Univariate and multivariate statistical analyses were done. Heritability of the response to PEA was 82%. The strain distribution pattern was suggestive of the inheritance of the trait through a single major gene locus.

## Abstract The hepatocarcinogen sensitivity (__Hcs__) loci were originally identified as determinants of the approximately 50βfold higher susceptibility of male C3H/HeJ (C3H) mice to perinatally induced hepatocarcinogenesis relative to male C57BL/6J (B6) mice. These two inbred strains also differ
A new set of recombinant inbred (RI) strain SMXA consisting of 26 substrains was established between SM/J and A/J. The history of the SMXA RI strains and their genetic profile covering 158 genetic marker loci are reported. From the strain distribution pattern among SMXA RI strains, the chromosomal l
