title: Assignment of LH XVI to chromosome 3 in the mouse.
abstract: We have presented evidence that the mouse loci comprising linkage group XVI are located on chromosome 3 distal to the my locus such that the order of genes is: Car-1, Car-2--my--ma--soc--Amy-1, Amy-2--Va. The genetic length for chr 3 is now estimated to be 82 recombination units. The genetic location of the breakpoint in the reciprocal translocation T(2:3)24H is placed between the Amy-1 and Va loci. A new simplified method for determining the Amy-1 and Amy-2 genotype of mice is presented.
