On the Temperature Characteristics for Frequency of Breathing Movements in Inbred Strains of Mice and in Their Hybrid Offspring. I
نویسنده
چکیده
Young mice of a selected line of the dilute brown strain of mice exhibit over the range 15-25 degrees C. (body temperature) a relation of frequency of breathing movements to temperature such that when fitted by the Arrhenius equation the data give a value for the constant micro of 24,000+/- calories or, less frequently, 28,000+/-. Young mice of an inbred albino strain show over the range 15-20 degrees C. a value of micro = 34,000+/-, or, less frequently, 14,000+/-, with a critical temperature at about 20 degrees C. and a value of micro = 14,000+/- above 20 degrees C. The F(1) hybrids of these two strains, and the backcross generations to either parent strain, exhibit only those four values of the temperature characteristic observed in the parent strains and none other. One may therefore speak of the inheritance of the value of the constant micro, but the inheritance shows in this instance no Mendelian behavior. Furthermore there appears to be inherited the occurrence (or absence) of a critical temperature at 20 degrees C. These experiments indicate the "biological reality" of the temperature characteristics.

The laboratory mouse is recognized as the pre-eminent model for genetic research. Awareness of chromosomal patterns of experimental animals increases their value for a variety of different fields of study. We aimed to study mitotic chromosome preparations from NIH, C57BL/6 and Razi strains of mice, which are outbred, inbred and partially inbred laboratory mice respectively. Bone marrow cells we...
متن کاملStudy on gene action and combining abilities for thermotolerant ablilities of corn (Zea mays L.)
High temperature reduces the pollen viability and silk receptivity of corn resulting in poor seed set and reduced yield. Continuously increasing temperature and less frequency and distribution of rainfall coupled with usual canal–closure particularly in Pakistan have significantly been decreasing the grain yield. This problem could be overcome by developing heat tolerant maize hybrids. For this...
