Reciprocal cross-fostering of control Wistar and catalepsy-prone GC rat pups resulted in a decrease in duration of cataleptic reactions of GC rats estimated at the age of two weeks, one month, and six months and a tendency to its decrease in Wistar rats at the age of one month. In-fostering did not exert this effect.
