  • Title: Genetic independence of the embryonic reactivity difference to cortisone- and 6-aminonicotinamide-induced cleft palate in the mouse.
    Author: Biddle FG, Fraser FC.
    Journal: Teratology; 1979 Apr; 19(2):207-11. PubMed ID: 157557.
    Abstract:
    The A/J strain of mice is more reactive than C57BL/6J to both cortisone- and 6-aminonicotinamide-induced cleft palate. A breeding study was set up to determine the genetic control of the differences in embryonic reactivity between the two strains to the two teratogens. In this paper the test for possible association between the two response traits is presented. In the second-backcross generation of embryos where segregation of the two traits could be studied no association was found. Therefore, any embryonic genes making major contributions to differences in reactivity between the two strains are not the same for the two teratogens.
