The GTM represent a set of congenic mouse strains with introgressed DNA segments of about 30 cM spanning the genome.
For a detailed Introduction to the GTM, click here .
Construction
of the GTM is described in Iakoubova
et al.
Characteristics
of the B6.DBA congenics are described in Davis
et al., 2005
Characteristics
of the B6.CAST congenics are described in Davis et al., 2007
For most GTM strains, we have developed homozygous
breeding stocks.
It is our aim to make these GTM strains available
to the scientific community.
Strains at JAX
Strains at UCLA
To allow investigators to identify the most suitable
strains for their work, we have created a searchable database that contains
the marker parameters for each GTM strain.
