Chromosomal determinants of intermale aggressive behavior in inbred mice
Behavior Genetics
|January 1, 1976
Abstract:
A behavioral genetic system has been investigated in which the Y chromosome of DBA/1/Bg mice makes an incremental contribution to the adult aggression of B10D1F1 hybrid mice. Crosses with C57BL/10/Bg, C57BL/6/Bg, and DBA/2/Bg have identified a minimum of one incremental and one decremental (suppressor) genetic factor (in addition to the Y chromosome) which are autosomal and which affect the expression of adult intermale aggression in these strains.
