Notes

• Experiment
  76 polymorphic microsatellite markers at an average distance of 27.5 cM were screened in 535 (SM/J x LG/J)F2 animals to identify QTLs associated with tooth development. Parental inbred strain LG/J exhibits larger body size compared to SM/J. Tshp18, a QTL influencing tooth shape, maps to 20 cM on mouse Chromosome 18. Tshp18 exceeds the P<0.001 significance threshold of LOD=4.185.
