3 anatomical structure(s)

Find Mice (IMSR)

• Mouse strains and cell lines available from the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
• Carrying this Mutation: Mouse Strains: 1 strain available Cell Lines: 0 lines available
• Carrying any chtl Mutation: 2 strains or lines available

Notes

Tests for allelism to cht and chtl were considered inconclusive because the F2s produced in both tests resulted in two coat colors, and while indicating some interaction between the new mutation and the chocolate mutation, does not prove that the new mutation is a remutation to chocolate.
