Notes

• Experiment
  Linkage analysis was performed on 986 (C57BL/6J x C3H/HeJ)F2 female animals using 107 microsatellite markers to identify QTLs associated with bone mineral density (BMD). Parental strain C3H/HeJ exhibits higher bone mineral density values compared to C57BL/6J. Bmd9 mapped to 65.6 cM on mouse Chromosome 7 with a peak LOD=5.01 at D7Mit332 in linkage to vertebral BMD. C3H/HeJ-derived alleles confer an additively-inherited decrease in vertebral BMD at Bmd9.
