title: Identification of inbred strains of mice: II. Characterization of different substrains of the C3H strain.
abstract: Substrains of inbred C3H mice differ significantly in their genetic constitution with respect to biochemical markers, skin grafting, and skeletal variations. The presence of such discrepancies among substrains poses a problem when comparing conclusions based on experiments done in different substrains. Therefore, methods of controlling the genetic constitution are necessary and important to avoid these discrepancies.
