Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Don Bailey, The Jackson Laboratory Development
Dr. Don Bailey, then at The Jackson Laboratory, generated a panel of congenic resistant lines distinct at histocompatibility loci, with selection for minor histocompatibility loci, by crossing BALB/CBy females with C57BL/6By males and then backcrossing at each generation to a C57BL/6J male. At backcross generation 5 orthotopic tailskin graft tests were done to identify lines bearing BALB/cBy-derived congenic intervals with minor histocompatibility loci. This backcrossing, with testing, was continued until siblings at backcross generation 11 or more were intercrossed to breed the congenic interval to homozygosity and each strain was maintained by sibling inbreeding (Bailey, 1975).
