title: [Sex ratio of inbred strains of mice].
abstract: A study of the sex ratio in mice of the inbred strains (CBA and C3H) and connection of the postimplantation embryonic mortality in mice of these strains with the sex distribution of embryos demonstrated that the sex ratio in these mice was 1:1. Literature and the author's personal data suggested that genetic features of mice of the inbred strains failed to influence significantly the sex ratio of the offspring. The postimplantation embryonic death rate in the C3H mice exceeded that in the CBA mice (14.4 and 9.3%, respectively). However, the balanced sex ratio in mice of these strains points to the absence of selective mortality of the embryos of any one sex during embryogenesis.
