| Glossary Term | Coisogenic Strain |
| Definition |
A strain that differs from a particular inbred strain at only one locus. A coisogenic strain arises when a mutation occurs in an inbred strain. The coisogenic strain can be propagated by intercrossing heterozygotes to produce homozygotes; if these are nonviable, the strain can be maintained by backcrossing heterozygotes to the original inbred strain.
