Position on Mouse Chromosome 1 of a Gene that Controls Resistance to Salmonella typhimurium

Abstract
Ity is a gene which regulates the magnitude of Salmonella typhimurium growth in murine tissues and, hence, the innate salmonella resistance of mice. The results of a five-point backcross clearly showed that the correct gene order on chromosome 1 is fz-Idh-1-Ity-ln-Pep-3.
