Strain Information

Type Inbred Strain; Additional information on Inbred Strains. Type Wild-Derived; Additional information on Wild-Derived Mice. Mating System Sibling x Sibling         (Female x Male) Species M. m. castaneus Generation ?+F2 (07-DEC-07) Geographic Origin Thailand

Appearance
agouti
Related Genotype: A/A

Development
The founders were trapped in a grain warehouse, in Thonburi, Thailand by Dr. Joseph T Marshall, and mice were sent to Dr. Vernon Chapman and Dr. Frank Ruddle at Yale University, and, from there, to Dr. Eva Eicher and Dr. Thomas Roderick at The Jackson Laboratory in 1971. Dr. Eicher's colony were maintained by inbreeding to generate CAST/Ei and Dr. Roderick's colony were maintained by inbreeding to generate CASA/Rk and CASB/Rk. (Roderick, 1982; Chapman and Ruddle, 1972.)

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX^® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX^® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX^® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
