Notes

• Experiment
  Tlln was reported in a previous study and was confirmed and further characterized by additional genotyping of the original (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F2 population as well as a partial congenic strain and new F2 cross. Tlln was localized to an 8 cM interval between D1Mit30 and D1Mit57. C57BL/6J-derived alleles confer increased tail length at this locus and is inherited in an additive fashion. Tlln is linked to tail length at the 6- and 10-week time points. Tlln also appears to affect skeletal dimensions such as the length of the humerus, femur, tibia, mandible, scapula, and pelvic girdle.
