Notes

• Experiment
  Confirmation of linkage between Hc and Rmp2 on mouse Chromosome 2 was established. (C57BL/6NCr x DBA/2NCr)F1 female mice were backcrossed to DBA/2NCr male mice deriving an N2 founder male of the genotype Hc^l Rmp2^r with the C57BL/6 allele Hc^l being a marker for the Rmp2 resistant phenotype. Data derived from the concordant passage of these two genes through seven generations of backcrosses to DBA/2NCr suggest a recombination frequency of 0.2 between Hc and Rmp2.
  
  10.8.2015 Curator Note: Rmp2 was orginally mapped using a (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F1 x DBA/2J backcross in 1991 in J:11032. A second cross in the same study identified QTL Rmp5 using
  a (C57BL/6NCr x DBA/2NCr)F1 x DBA/NCr backcross population. We have equated the map study here as confirming Rmp5.
