title: Identification of quantitative phenotypes in backcross and intercross offspring.
abstract: The computer program SKUMIX was used to analyze the values of quantitative traits in controlled breeding experiments using inbred rat strains. The SKUMIX program iterated parameters were used to determine the number of expected phenotypes, the values of means and their ratios in the progeny. The computer computed parameters were identical with the results calculated using the real values. The SKUMIX program may be valuable to analyze quantitative data obtained from intercross and backcross breeding experiments yielding overlapping values that cannot be individually assigned to a particular phenotype.
