title: Genetic control of Trichomonas vaginalis infection. I. Resistance or susceptibility among different mouse strains.
abstract: Susceptibility of different strains of mice to infection with Trichomonas vaginalis was determined. Striking strain differences in susceptibility to T. vaginalis inoculum were observed in different mouse strains suggesting that susceptibility is under control of genes mapping mainly outside the major histocompatibility complex.
