title: Preferential segregation of marker chromosomes 14 and 18 in mouse recombinant inbred strains derived from the KE and CBA/Kw strains.
abstract: The segregation pattern of chromosomes 14 and 18 were analyzed in recombinant inbred strains of mice developed from KE and CBA/Kw strains. The analysis was possible owing to the fact that the C-band on chromosomes 14 of the CBA/Kw strain and that of chromosome 18 of the KE strain show size polymorphism: while the CBA/Kw mice have a small sized C-band on chromosome 14, the KE mice show small C-bands on chromosome 18. Chromosomes were identified by G-banding and FISH. The results show that the chromosomes with small centromeric chromatin segregate preferentially.
