Genetic mapping of the mouse genome.
This article provides an introduction to genetic mapping for scientists who wish to map specific genes or mutant phenotypes in the mouse. The basic principles of genetic mapping and the different types of genetic markers available are described in the first two sections of the chapter. The theoretical and empirical principles necessary to consider when designing mapping experiments are reviewed in the third section. Protocols for mapping phenotypic traits and cloned genes are detailed in the fourth and fifth sections.
