Notes

• Experiment
  Backcross progeny from two sets of crosses between (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F1 females x C57BL/6J males (N2 = 82) and C57BL/6J females x (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F1 males (N2 = 78) were analyzed for alcohol consumption. The difference in alcohol consumption between male and female backcross progeny is significant. Therefore sexes were analyzed separately using chi-square analysis to find quantitative trait loci (QTL). P<0.006 was obtained for linkage with D2Mit241 in males. This provides further support for the existence of the Alcp1 locus and its sex specific effect on alcohol consumption previously described in J:33277.
